Claim Text:
1. A folding knife with a safe pushing mechanism, comprising: a handle provided therein with a first slot and a second slot, both said slots being adjacent to a first end of the handle, the first slot having a first end adjacent to the first end of the handle and a second end extending slantingly toward a second end of the handle, the second slot having a first end adjacent to the second end of the first slot and a second end extending toward the second end of the handle; a blade having an end pivotally connected in the handle at a position adjacent to the first end of the handle, the blade being rotatable out of or into the handle about a position where the handle and the blade are pivotally connected; a pressing element having a first end pivotally provided in the handle at a position adjacent to the position where the handle and the blade are pivotally connected, the pressing element having a second end provided with at least one sliding block and an abutting portion, the sliding block extending into and being displaceable in the first slot, wherein when the blade is completely received in the handle, the abutting portion abuts against the blade, and the sliding block is located at the first end of the first slot; and a pushing element provided in the handle at a position adjacent to the position position where the handle and the blade are pivotally connected, the pushing element element having a side exposed from the handle, the pushing element being formed with a third slot and at least one post, the third slot having a first end adjacent to the first end of the handle and a second end extending slantingly toward the second end of the handle, the third slot having an extending direction crossing an extending direction of the first slot, the sliding block of the pressing element extending into and being displaceable in the third slot, the post extending into and being displaceable in the second slot, wherein when the blade is completely received in the handle, the sliding block is located at the second end of the third slot, and the post is located adjacent to the first end of the second slot; wherein when the side of the pushing element is pushed and displaced toward the second end of the handle, the post is displaced from the first end of the second slot toward the second end of the second slot and drives the sliding block of the pressing element such that the sliding block is displaced simultaneously from the second end of the third slot toward the first end of the third slot and from the first end of the first slot toward the second end of the first slot, causing the abutting portion of the pressing element to apply a force to the blade, thereby rotating the blade out of the handle to a predetermined angle.
