Blink and you'll miss it. The LCK is lightning fast and ready for anything. Compact and powerful, the LCK everyday carry folding knife is built around the Assisted Opening innovation for extremely fast deployment speeds. Pack some heat.
Designed by Matthew Lerch of Sussex, Wisconsin, the LCK is designed with Matthew's signature style: functional art. With a sleek, linear design, the formidable drop point stainless steel blade meets the glass-reinforced nylon handle in what looks like a nearly seamless transition. The grooves on the handle elevate the grip in rain, mud, and grease. Built with Assisted Opening, simply nudge the blade open part-way and the innovation activates, snapping it open at super high speed. The IKBS ball bearing pivot system makes for a smooth rotation and a liner lock keeps it solidly in place.
Ready, aim, LCK .
How Assisted Opening Works
It's held securely closed in your pocket, but initiate the deployment, and part-way through the rotation the blade swings open at an impressive speed for simple, powerful, one-handed opening.

Pros: Pocket Clip
Cons: None
Still nicely done!
Oops! Left a review in which I mentioned a deep carry clip would be nice. Well, that's what it has already so scrub that from my comment. Still too tight, so I loosened the clip. Couldn't hardly get it out of my pocket without using two hands.Action is still really stiff - hard to open. Hoping that will ease up over time.

Pros: None
Cons: None
Not going to use it
Looks and feels good when open. But it is very difficult to open, and needs two hands to close - which makes it a failure as a flipper in my mind. This is a knife I'm sorry I bought, and won't use, especially since there are so many very good options available.
