TAH Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/26/05 Posts: 2382 Loc: USA	Buck, thanks for the photos. Shows how much I know - I thought the large flap was for quick thumb release. Knowing how it works makes it even more clever. I wonder if the pointy flap had a tendency to catch on brush and unsnap. Regardless, it's still neat. _________________________ Tom RKS #4233

The angled sides of the flap, allows it to slide along brush. _________________________ YOU NEVER PAY TOO MUCH FOR SOMETHING . . YOU ONLY BUY IT TOO EARLY. Buck Stix RKS #240

buckstix Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/03/05 Posts: 27 Loc: Cheese Head State	Hello TAH, No special snap. It just likes being pulled from the top. Good idea however, having a directional snap. _________________________ YOU NEVER PAY TOO MUCH FOR SOMETHING . . YOU ONLY BUY IT TOO EARLY. Buck Stix RKS #240
