Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web
12-19-2019) The Spyderco C191 Janisong is not currently featured on www.spyderco.com. This description is taken from the 2019 Spyderco Product Guide:
The Janisong is a one-of-a-kind folding knife that elevates the spirit of the traditional Filipino balisong to a practical, yet dramatic modern cutting tool. The brainchild of knife designer Michael Janich, its patented mechanism consists of an outer handle, an inner handle, and a full-flat-ground CPM S30V stainless steel blade, all joined by a single pivot pin. Rotating the inner handle 360 degrees reveals the blade and locks it securely in the open position. An ambidextrous sliding latch mechanism reinforces the blade lock when open and also secures the blade and handles in the closed position for safe carry. With practice, the JaniSong can be opened extremely quickly with a variety of techniques, but because its outer handle is its “safe” handle, it is inherently safer than a conventional balisong. For ease of carry, it comes complete with a deep-pocket four-position clip." [1]
