Overview

This Barry Wood designed swing lock folder by Colt Knives features a satin finish blade and satin finish stainless steel frame with brown micarta scales.

This is a very unique scissor opening folder, which when the blade is fully open and locked in place is almost a fixed blade knife. The handle is nicely contoured for a comfortable grip.

Opening is accomplished by lighting pressing down and outward at the rear indentation on the spine, which releases the locking pin and allows one side of the handle and the blade to rotate down then forward until the blade locks in the forward position. The one side of the handle continues to rotate back until it locks in place. Closing requires the same slight thumb pressure at the indentation to release the locking pin, then the one side of the handle is rotated back and around, catching the blade and aligning both with the other side of the handle in a locked closed position.

This knife doesn't appear to have been used but the handle show signs of carry. The blade is marked with the Colt logo and Harford CT and has marks from open/closing. Includes original packaging as well as a leather sheath with the Colt Logo Stamp.

About the Maker

Colt Knives

Colt pocketknives were created for Colt under license. Colt's entry into the knife market lasted only four years, from 1969 to 1973. Colt filed for bankruptcy in 2015. The court approved Colt’s reorganization plan in January of 2016, and they will continue making guns. They won’t, however, continue making knives under their current licensing deals, and according to a source close to Colt, there is no plan to start making knives again.
