The good in issue is a Zero Tolerance folding knife, model ZT 0300, manufactured by Kai USA Ltd. dba Zero Tolerance Knives, a subsidiary of Kershaw Knives. The knife employs a torsion bar assisted-opening mechanism that essentially functions like a spring at the base of the blade. This torsion bar mechanism initially secures the blade in the closed position; however, by pressing on the protrusion located on the spine of the blade, one overcomes the resistance of the torsion bar and engages the energy stored in the tensioning mechanism to force it along a half-moon track and deploy the blade into a locked, open position with great speed.[6] In this manner, the torsion bar effectively acts like a spring. The knife measures approximately 14 centimetres when closed and is equipped with a blade that is approximately 9 centimetres in length.[7]
