Patent attributes
A folding knife configured for rapid assembly and disassembly includes a blade and first and second handle portions. The first handle portion includes two engaging posts on the inner side, and the second handle portion has two engaging holes in the inner side. The engaging posts can extend respectively into the engaging holes so that the two handle portions form a complete handle. An engaging plate is provided in the handle and connected to a switch in the second handle portion. When the switch is pushed in one direction, the engaging plate engages with the engaging posts to prevent the engaging posts from disengaging from the engaging holes. Once the switch is pushed in the opposite direction, the engaging plate disengages from the engaging posts to allow the engaging posts to disengage from the engaging holes. The switch thus enables rapid assembly and disassembly of the folding knife.
