Sub-$200 flippers with BIG lock disengagement tabs!

[CraigMang]

So I've gotten a couple of new knives lately that are fine, but have measly little lock disengagement tabs (if any at all). The ZT0770 is a great example: its liner lock has a teensy "serrated" tab, which barely pokes out of the scale and is hard to easily manipulate.

I like the knife, but I'm really hankering for something more substantial so I can quickly and easily close the blade. Any ideas of flippers that have big, meaty tabs that also won't "break the bank?" All suggestions welcome, thanks!

There's a reason they are small. Bigger is easier to disengage with a tight grip.

That's a darn good point...I suppose I should say "easily accessible" rather than big. Just looking for recommendations of ones that are easy to get at and push down without becoming a thumb shredder.

The easiest I've ever had was a cold steel ti lite... The ck bar is curves where you push, disengages easily, and well below $200

ZT 0801 or 0801BW or 0562.

I would suggest you look for a frame lock rather than a liner lock based on your criteria. You may be able to find a ZT 0560 right at the $200 mark. Certainly one used should be had for just under your price.
