CRK- Alternative deployment techniques?

[kidcongo]

Here's a thread to discuss other ways of getting your CRK open. Here's one from me for the 25:

If you are messing around with your 25, you can get the blade mostly open by pressing down hard on the jimping past the pivot. It's hard to get it all the way open like this, but you can get it started. No reason to do it this way, other than because you can. Gotta love that 25 jimping! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Nothing paramount, just a partial drop opening. [video=youtube_share;OIodWUlOlGc]http://youtu.be/OIodWUlOlGc[/video]

I actually use this type of opening a lot just before I hand the knife to someone else to use (it makes it easier to present the handle first).

unit,

That last one is pretty neat, but my pinky is nowhere near that dextrous or flexible.

Love that second vid! Mad skills Unit.

Really!?! Thanks. I never though it was that special (sort of figured everyone would say, "yeah, me too...(yawn).")

For what it is worth, I use my ring finger or the reverse deploy.

Now it makes sense!

(Still gonna take a little practice, though, to be that smooth.)

Chicks love a dexterous man. I'm guessing that Unit has many girlfriends (unless he is matrimonally involved).

Yup, gotta wife and three mini-units.View attachment 474704

Thanks Unit that's a different method, I hadn't tried it before now and works well.
