The Knife Edge: One Man, So Many Knives©: Opening Knives

 Videos make instruction so much
easier.  Instead of line drawings or pictures
that take 10K words to explain, or pages of text carefully written and
rewritten by a technical writer, a couple of short videos show you how to repair
a leaky faucet, change an oil filter, and perform open-heart surgery.  Well, maybe not the last one.

Let me show you two short videos on
opening knives.

The first is Rick Hinderer’s XM-18,
his and Ohio’s first legally manufactured auto. 
If I was to annotate the video, I’d say, “Press.”

The second is a unique design
called the Warlock Sorcerer Supreme from Paragon Ashville Steel.  Here I would annotate this video with, “Squeeze!”     

Now you know!

                                                                                Press!

                                                                        Squeeze!
