I've got two smaller spring assisted opening Kershaws, looking to get a larger one.

Question - WHAT is Kershaw's "technical name" for the little stud on the spine of the blade that you can use w/ pressure from your index finger (NOT my THUMB) to flick them open with?

I can't see what the feature is listed as or the name for it anywhere on any of Kershaw's website, and there are a couple models I am not 100% sure have this feature.

I already have two other Kershaws that have the spring assisted opening feature, but do not feature this stud on the spine, and I don't like them as much. :(


Thanks!

On the smaller knives it isn't specifically called this, but when the piece is more pronounced it is actually called a flipper.

Yeah, I think that's them.

Here's a pic of one of mine and the part in question circled in red-
