Mr Shank, With the knife closed, take a look from the top bolster at the blade where there's a notch cut out...this is for locking the blade in the open position. If the notch is wide...or worn on one side...there's nothing you can do to make it lock open. This is a very common problem with these "low-end" production knives.
Also, as Bill has suggested,the top blosters have tabs you bend up to remove the handles...be very cautious not to bend them out too far. Pry them a little at a time until they just clear being pulled away from the liner. I've repaired dozens of these type knives, and it's not hard to break something. Send me a PM if you need any help.
