I don't really have any more Weird Knives for WKW, but I guess you could consider this knife weird in that it somehow exists.
For those not familiar, last December, Walmart released a $6 axis lock knife. It doesn't really have a name, though there's a model number somewhere (it doesn't really matter). They were initially very difficult to find by me, with 2 stores in reasonable driving distance not having any. However, we eventually got them in and I snagged 2.
The steel is some sort of 420(x) that Walmart uses on all their Ozark Trail knives. The grinds somehow....good despite the likely accidental recurve. The action on both was exactly what you'd expect out of a $6 knife. And yet...and yet they both improved. The spring tension is off the charts. It requires a ton of force to pull the lock bar back, but once done, you can flip the knife out and most of the time flip it back closed again. I never tried to disassemble it because I had heard that the screws strip if you even show them a torx bit let alone try and use one.
I gave one away in a white elephant gift exchange at a Scout meeting shortly after buying it. The other I've kept sitting on my desk at the home office just flipping it back and forth and watching the action get better over time.
I've not seen them for sale since and I have no idea if Walmart will ever make another. So not a weird knife in the physical sense, more a weird knife because it defies reality.
