The blade 2 also has an opening position in which at least the cutting edge 22 and the blade tip 23 are exposed from the handle 1 and the blade 2 can be used for cutting. The blade 2 rotates to switch between the closing position and the opening position. The blade head 21 has a locking hole 211.

[0054] The locking column 3 is provided on the knife handle 1. The locking column 3 is provided with a locking portion 31. The locking portion 31 is located in the accommodating cavity 11. The locking portion 31 has a locking position that cooperates with the locking hole 211 to limit the blade 2 to the closing position. The locking portion 31 also has an unlocking position that disengages from the locking hole 211 so that the blade 2 can be switched to the opening position. The locking portion 31 switches between the locking position and the unlocking position as the blade 2 rotates. The cross-section of the locking portion 31 gradually decreases toward the accommodating cavity 11.

[0055] The folding knife of the present invention is based on the fact that the cutter head 21 is pivotally mounted on the handle 1 so that the blade 2 can rotate relative to the handle 1, and the blade 2 has a closing position in which at least the cutting edge 22 and the tip 23 are accommodated in the accommodating cavity 11, so that the blade 2 can be folded and accommodated in the handle 1, which is convenient for carrying the folding knife, and the blade 2 also has an opening position in which at least the cutting edge 22 and the tip 23 are exposed from the handle 1 and the blade 2 can be used for cutting, so that the blade 2 can be used normally, and the blade 2 rotates to switch between the closing position and the opening position; in addition, based on the fact that the cutter head 21 has a locking hole 211 and the handle 1 is provided with a locking column 3, the locking column 3 is provided with a locking portion 31 located in the accommodating cavity 11, and the locking portion 31 has a locking position that cooperates with the locking hole 211 to limit the blade 2 to the closing position, so that the knife can be properly used.

The locking portion 31 also has an unlocking position that disengages from the locking hole 211, so that the blade 2 can be switched to the opening position. The locking portion 31 switches between the locking position and the unlocking position as the blade 2 rotates, that is, the blade 2 can be locked or unlocked by turning the blade 2, and the locking and unlocking operations of the blade 2 are simple and convenient; wherein, based on the cross-section of the locking portion 31 gradually shrinking in the direction close to the accommodating cavity 11, the locking portion 31 is a conical structure, and the taper of the locking portion 31 of the conical structure can be adjusted according to actual needs, and the taper of the locking portion 31 of the conical structure determines the unlocking force required for the blade 2, so that the unlocking force of the blade can also be adjusted, which is more flexible and convenient to use.

[0056] See also Figure 2-Figure 3 In one embodiment, the folding knife further comprises:

[0057] The anti-wear lining 4 is provided on the handle 1 and is located on a side wall of the accommodating cavity 11. The locking post 3 is provided on the anti-wear lining 4. The anti-wear lining 4 can reduce friction and cushion impact forces, thereby protecting the handle 1 and blade 2. At the same time, by providing the locking post 3 on the anti-wear lining 4, the difficulty of installing the locking post 3 can be reduced, and the locking post 3 can be quickly installed on the anti-wear lining 4.

[0058] See also Figure 9 In one embodiment, the wear-resistant lining 4 includes a first extension section 41 and a second extension section 42. The first extension section 41 and the second extension section 42 are spaced apart from each other along the wear-resistant lining 4 from top to bottom. The first extension section 41 is connected to the tool handle 1. A first end of the second extension section 42 in the longitudinal direction is connected to the first extension section 41. A second end of the second extension section 42 in the longitudinal direction is suspended so that the second end of the second extension section 42 can move relative to the first extension section 41.

[0059] The locking post 3 is provided at the second end in the longitudinal direction of the second extension section 42. Thus, when the blade 2 is unlocked, an unlocking force is applied to the blade 2 to overcome the locking force applied to the blade 2 by the locking portion 31. At the same time, the second end of the second extension section 42 moves relative to the first extension section 41, driving the locking portion 31 out of the locking hole 211. Thereafter, the second extension section 42 can be reset under the action of its own elastic force. While resetting, it can also apply a certain thrust to the blade 2, making it easier to switch the blade 2 from the closed position to the open position, reducing the difficulty of unlocking the blade 2, and thus making unlocking the blade 2 more convenient and efficient.

[0060] In one embodiment, the anti-wear lining 4 is made of a hard metal material, or may be made of a hard plastic material.

The outer diameter of the connecting portion 32 is smaller than that of the locking portion 31. The connecting portion 32 cooperates with the connecting hole 421 to connect the locking post 3 to the anti-wear lining 4. The locking portion 31 abuts against the side wall of the second extension section 42 to confine the connecting portion 32 within the connecting hole 421. Thus, during installation, the locking post 3 and the anti-wear lining 4 are connected by cooperating with the connecting hole 421. Simultaneously, the locking portion 31 abuts against the side wall of the second extension section 42 to secure the locking post 3 in place and ensure reliable connection between the connecting portion 32 and the connecting hole 421. This results in a simple and practical connection structure, high reliability, and low cost.

[0063] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment, the blade head 21 is provided with an unlocking toggle 212. The unlocking toggle 212 is located on the side of the blade 2 where the cutting edge 22 is located. That is, the unlocking toggle 212 and the cutting edge 22 are located on the same side of the blade 2. When the blade 2 is in the closed position, the unlocking toggle 212 is exposed from the handle 1. In this way, when unlocking the blade 2, the blade 2 can be released from the closed position by pushing the unlocking toggle 212, making the unlocking operation of the blade 2 more convenient and labor-saving.
