They don't name their knives, their so crappy they don't even care.
Check on the backside though, sometimes there's a model number in small at the very base of the blade.

A word of advice would be to forget about this knife.
I've had enough Tac-Force knives ( my collection was well over 100 cheapo knives like this ) and can tell you they're not really even worth $5 if you're buying it as a knife.
Carry a Tac-Force knife for a month and it's a miracle if the clip is still on it, no screws are missing, the blade is still tight, and it's stays closed.
They'll fall apart, and will start to no longer stay closed unless you've got it too tight to spring open.

You can get some loctite on every screw if you can get them out without striplost them, that is if they're not already stripped.
They just plain such and the odds of getting a good one are about 1 in 250.

That’s the only knife I’ve ever seen with the folding mechanism like this idc if it’s a bad knife I want it to have In my collection I think it’s a cool knife and idc if it’s a tac force knife I just love the look and feel of that blade
 
Bought a knife on the exchange here once, and the seller tossed in a Tac Force as a "bonus".

Both of us knew the thing wasn't much, and I had to admire the tongue-in-cheek humor of the bonus gift.

It opens mail on the desk. I wouldn't dare carry it for using, as it may well explode and injure me or others.

Used to say that I wouldn't take a Tac Force knife if somebody gave one to me. LOL, rule broken I guess.

But I still would never spend good money on any of their stuff.

Ok, then it'll be just fine for your collection as my Tac-Force knives were.

Check the back, they often have model numbers in small print near the tang.
If not you'll just have to search through Google pictures of Tac-Force knives, because they rarely name their knives and the boxes rarely have any information on them.
 
From what I can see I wouldn't call it a "mechanism". It's just a piece of metal that extends from the bottom of the handle so you gab have a larger blade to handle ratio without having an oversized handle. A number of brands have done this before. The Lone Wolf Big Water comes to mind. Maybe not as "tacticool" as the TacForce, but a better knife in every respect. No longer in production. Though I doubt it would be too tough to find for a reasonable price.

For the same $5 at the flea market I can get 10-15 old us made hand tools
 
If it is just the looks of the knife that you like, Cold Steel makes similar knives, all good quality, but without that odd contraption.

Agreed. $15 overpriced at that IMHO. Fun until it breaks. Not for anything serious. Leave open as a letter opener.
 
If you don't want to spend much, check out a Kershaw Barstow or a Cold Steel Ti Lite if you want a similar looking knife that's actually a knife.
