Hello,

I've read this expression about slip joint knives but I've no idea of what it s :( : cam tangs

If you have an explanation and better a sketch it would be great 🙏

A cam tang is a rounded tang that is smooth opening throughout the pull when opening the blade. Where as a knife with half stops has a 90 degree square tang so that it stops half way through the pull with a stop in it's travel.
