EvshrugI can easily open my Spy-DK with one hand. I just pinch the blade at the hole with my thumb and forefinger and open halfway. Then I finish the motion just using my thumb against the blade. It's not as easy or smooth as Spyderco's other knives, but as long as you'er careful, it works.

StuntZombie@MJ.L & @StuntZombie ,
thanks to you both for the suggestions! I'll have to look at the Urban because larger isn't ideal, but opening this knife one-handed sounds doable!

EvshrugIt just takes a bit of practice, and it's not going to be as fast as Spyderco's with the larger hole.
I'm finding I actually prefer smaller blades these days. They're definitely a lot easier to carry, and they handle most everything I need a knife for.

I'd like to open the blade one-handed too, but that Spydie hole looks a little small... maybe use a (ugly) zip tie as a sort of thumb stud? Anyone have a suggestion for a quality, small bladed, non-assisted, one handed open/close knife? This seems pretty close!
