All About Pocket Knives

this is the curly maple these are pretty much a straight up copy of the Grizzly

It looks like a lefty ? where can I shop for one ?

No, they're not left handed ,you hold the knife with the thumb on top , and fire the release with the index finger . Greg at TSA knives just listed a pre - order for another run of app. 265 knives . The first batch were sold out on pre - buy in 2 days . I also notice the price took a large leap upward . But , nothing else like it has been offered for a long time .

Um, that would make it a left-handed model.

Here's a little video of it's operation. Aparantly you need a special kind of voodoo to embed a video here

I can't for the life of me understand why they would make it left handed.

They are opposite of the old Grizzlys. They were hard enough to open with the large spring in the way for you to exert enough pressure to push the button with your thumb, and that is the only finger on that side of the knife if you are right handed. If the button was on the back side of my Grizzly it would be near impossible with one hand. I might have to buy one just to find out. ____Dave

Original Grizzlys worked fine if you know how to use them. Converting them to left-hand offers no advantage that I can see.
