Maye I don't fully grasp your definition of "knife" switch.

Are you talking about something like this?

Wouldn't want one of those things within 10 feet of a location that
might have petrol vapours. ( hope I spelled it right for our
Canadian friends)
Actually no although one could argue that vapor and vapour are,
speaking relatively you understand, the same thing.

According to my handy dandy dictionary/thesaurus of all things
Englishy and Etymological, the correct spelling is vapor, but vapour
is acceptable as it is part of the word vapourous (filmy, obscure,
unable to be seen; hidden).

Just doing my part. *:)
Of course, I am speaking of the 20 vol. set of the Oxford English
Dictionary, none of the "concise" versions.

That I don't have, but I do have the interactive volumes.

I have the full set, plus the additional volumes, plus the CD version.

There's a new CD version coming out in June, version 4.0, for PCs and
macs. I run my CD version on the pc side of my mac at present.

I am so.....so impressed. Leave it to Harrie to have the bestest and
mostest dictionary. No wonder you are such a good speller.- Hide quoted text -
