WHAT
IS AN ASSISTED OPENING KNIFE? - An assisted opening knife uses a
spring activated mechanism to deploy a knife blade when a little bit of
pressure is applied in opening the knife. They are often confused with
switchblades, but have one main difference. While a switchblade can be
opened usually with the push of a button, the user of an assisted knife
must apply some pressure to the knife, usually at the thumb stud,
thumbdisc or index finger protrusion. Once the knife has been opened about
20% to 30% of the way, the mechanism will open the knife the rest of the
way. These are NOT switchblades. You open the knife slightly and then the
spring takes over, snapping the blade open like a switchblade.
