Hitchcock Design

Side Opening Knife Hand Made by Tom Hitchcock Patent pending. All rights reserved

This is my current version of the knife I call

Tribanda (sanskrit for 3 locks)

the knife features a ratcheting lock and release mechanism that opens in a heartbeat and locks up tighter that a tick.

The version shown here has a titanium frame and cams, and AUS34 tool steel blade. The locking mechanism allows the blade to be securely locked in both the open and closed positions. The blade can be extended quickly with one hand with the ease and speed of a switchblade. Knife has a 2.5" blade weight 1.25oz. I should be offering benchmade versions of these for sale soon!
