Abstract
A folding knife and related method include actuating elements for locking or unlocking the blade of the knife. The actuating elements are permanently illuminated or backlit so that the actuating elements are more clearly visible in low light conditions and can therefore be safely operated. Such features for knife applications may provide advantages for particular activities where knives are commonly used, such as for law enforcement and hunting.
