Weird Knife Wednesday - CRKT Fulcrum 2
Please excuse it's dirty, dull, and scratched state.
It doesn't look like much, but the unique opening motion where you push and pull the right scale will stump your friends.
Not pocket EDC for me, it's really heavy, and the jimping is too sharp. Also, I hated the pocket clip, it rides too high for my taste, cut up my jeans, and the opening got caught on everything I walked near.
It makes a great car knife though. Easy to open with gloves on, big enough to be easy to find in the cup holder, and great to fidget with.

I’ve never seen that before, thanks for sharing.
It is so annoying they don't make any of these anymore. I would love to add one to my weird knife pile.
That IS a bummer, but I understand why.
From the pictures I've seen I think I've figured out how the mechanism works. Maybe I'll make a 3D printed fiddle toy that works on the same concept, or something.
Yes! I remember seeing this somewhere and being total stumped by it. A crazy way to open a knife for sure.
