Yes, front flipper. I don't have the hand strength to top flip it with my index finger, but I've seen videos on you tube where that works too. But I can only do the front flipper if I turn my hand pronated with the palm down, and if my hand is at 90 degrees (thumb pointing up) then I can't get my thumb to cross over the top of the knife.

I had the same issue with mine. I ended up taking it apart and bending the lockbar bar back a little bit. That loosened the detent up enough to be able to top/front flip with my pointer finger. Before I did that, no chance lol. Detent was tight!

I might have to try that!

I had a Squidward front/top flipper that I could deploy using an index finger, but I returned it for a refund as it was still not worth the effort. The Peña X Barlow however is worth learning to open.

I know these are not typical of the knives shown here, but had to thank a forum member who participates here.
These knives were generously given to me by LLRJ17.
Thanks so much.View attachment 2040612

Nicely done

Received this American Blade Works Model 1 V6 off the Exchange from Thomson95 today. Neat piece for sure, given the nature of the maker’s operation.
