Another Hubertus Question

Post by lime* »

I've seen a few Hubertus knives for sale in online advertisements. They don't mention whether or not it's an auto, but i can tell by the picture that it is a level lock. I've seen Hubies with and without nail nicks. My question is, are there Hubertus knifes that are manual lever locks?

Only if the spring has been removed, or not installed.

okay, so they are normally autos if they have a lever lock then. I only have 1 lever lock, that isn't an auto, it's a broken auto. :/

Hubertus does offer a folding bowie (pig sticker) that is a manual lever lock. The blade is longer than the handle.
