Abstract:
A bracelet or flexible band comprised of a flexible member that on one end is interconnected to a knife and on another end, is connected to a sheath that selectively receives the knife in the locking fashion. When needed, the knife is rotated within the sheath to facilitate release thereof from a lock that is integral with the sheath. Once removed from the sheath, the knife can be used for self-defense, cutting rope or cord in an emergency situation, or for general utility cutting tasks.

Claim (Index 16):
A selectively connectable assembly, comprising:\n a sheath having a first end and a second open end, the sheath including a selectively deflectable arm terminating at a retaining member having a curved surface located adjacent the second open end of the sheath, the selectively deflectable arm extending away from the sheath with a proximal end interconnected to the sheath between the first end and the second open end and a distal end that comprises the retaining member spaced from the second open end of the sheath; a knife comprised of a blade configured to selectively fit within the sheath and an end with a protrusion extending therefrom, the blade further including a tip; wherein the retaining member has a first position of use where the protrusion is positioned between the second open end of the sheath and the retaining member, wherein the curved surface engages a portion of the protrusion, and a second position of use where the retaining member is deflected such that the knife is able to move away from of the sheath; wherein the second open end of the sheath is associated with a cavity configured to selectively receive the blade, the cavity having a ceiling and a floor, wherein the tip of the blade is spaced from the floor when the blade is inserted in the sheath; and wherein the retaining member will move from the first position of use to the second position of use when the second end of the device is moved to urge the tip towards the floor.
