Default PA's ,Dads and Son CASE knives

May have posted about my heirloom CASE knives before , have done some research and watched a video about pocket knife nomenclature. My question now is a 6208 a lock blade? this one as no snap but the knife doesn't look worn. My dad used it daily working at the hardware store . Will post pics and tang stamps later. Thanks

What is a PA? To me, it means a Physician's Asst. Or a US state n the NE.

If you show the knife, we can probably make some sense of it. But if it's a lock blade, wouldn't you have noticed that in using it?

Case 6208 is a half whittler, swell center, with a clip blade on one end and a pen on the other. No sign of a lock. If there were a lock, it would be obvious to you.
