Description
The new Ciabatta is a revolutionary new spring assisted knife. It may be my most favorite spring assisted knife of all time. The way it opens, is you push the blade slightly into the handle and then release. The blade pops open fast. The new Ciabatta is a completely new idea in folding knives. The mechanism is "Spring Assisted" because the knife can only be opened with pressure applied to the blade, and there is a detent that keeps the blade in the closed position so that it cannot be flipped open with gravity. The Pin Lock Ultra Safety (PLUS) mechanism will take a few minutes to become familiar with. Don't worry if it takes a couple of trys to get this knife open. Once you figure it out, it is a cinch. You will wonder why all spring assists aren't built this way. Since this knife opens and closes in a completely different manner than other knives, be sure to take some time to review the instruction sheet before handling these knives.
