Upon first glance there is nothing about the BR-1 to make you suspect it’s an automatic knife (no button of course).  The BOLSTER section of the handle slides up – this very deliberate movement is what fires the blade open and also unlocks it from the open position.

A nice variety of aluminum handle BR-1 are available and with it’s handy 3.125” blade, smooth discreet action, and deep carry clip make carry knives.

We were honored to be recognized with the Blade Magazine 2016 Investor/Collector knife of the year award for our BR-1 with full Bruce Shaw engraving, gold, pearl and Damascus.
