I have seen one (and one only!) that had a little pin on the spine of the blade right above the pivot that engaged in a recess in the "bee." You had to lift the bee with a thumbnail to unlock the blade. Not the strongest or safest lock, especially if worn.

Most of 'em are stiff enough in the spring it takes a major force of will to close them anyway, though.
