Abstract: A folding knife is described herein. The folding knife includes a release actuator that provides three knife positions: a secured closed position, a secured open position, and an intermediate unsecured position in between the two secured positions, and that opens and closes the folding knife easily and safely. A triple-purpose pivot ring provides an index finger grip, an attachment point, and a pivoting mechanism. The release actuator allows for one-handed operation. A blade holder comprises a blade lock that has two positions, one of which locks the blade into position in the blade holder, while the other position unlocks it. The blade lock may be a push button that unlocks the blade while pressing it down, and that automatically return the lock into its locked position by action of a spring, in particular a leaf spring.

Abstract: A cutting device is disclosed. The cutting device has a body member having a cavity that extends from an opening at a front end portion of the body member toward a back end portion of the body member. The cutting member also has a cutting member partially disposed in a first portion of the cavity, and an insert member disposed in a second portion of the cavity. The cavity narrows in a direction extending from the front end portion toward the back end portion. A width of the first portion of the cavity is greater than a width of the second portion of the cavity.
