Abstract
A knife includes a handle, a neck configured to hold a blade, and a lever configured to selectively release the blade from the neck. The lever is coupled to a blade lock arm configured to extend along a side of the blade. A ramped surface pushes the blade lock arm into the blade to press the blade against a side of the neck to clamp the blade to the side of the neck when the blade lock arm is in a blade locked position.
