From the Spyderco website: Size does matter, and sometimes smaller is better. That's definitely the case with the Dog Tag Folder. Based on one of knifemaker Serge Panchenko's most popular designs, this diminutive non-locking folder ensures that you're never without a sharp edge. Its titanium handle looks exactly like a military dog tag and houses an integral spring with a ball-bearing detent. ...
A non-locking folder, the Dog Tag's blade is held in place in the open position by a detent mechanism. A ball bearing in the handle scale's integral spring arm indexes holes in the tang of the blade to hold it both closed and open. Since the blade does not lock, care should be taken during use to apply cutting pressure only in a direction that maintains the knife's open position.
