Falcon Classic Black Spring Assisted EDC / Hunting Knife with Wood Inlay 3.25"
The spring assisted folding knife is quite a remarkable blade. Developed because of laws and municipalities that bar or prevent one from legally owning and/or carrying automatic switchblade knives, it is the perfect solution!
This Falcon spring assisted knife, in contrast to a standard automatic switchblade knife, is not opened by pressing an activating button (the button is what gets an automatic knife classified as illegal) , it is opened by using the index-open "flipper", which creates a hand guard when it is open.
The beauty of this spring assisted feat of engineering lies in its pivot area where a wound-up internal spring has been nested that assists in the opening of the knife. It is this spring that differentiates this spring assisted knife from its automatic switchblade / OTF cousins as well as the standard folding, manually-opened, lock blade knife.
To summarize the internal spring featured in this knife assists and finishes the opening process once the index flipper is pushed. That's right!!! Once the blade has reached a 30-40 degree angle, it automatically slams open the rest of the way with the force of a switchblade!!!
Springing open to an impressive 8", this Spring Assisted Stiletto is not for the timid.
The handle of this spring assisted knife, which features a durable Black Finished Stainless Steel Frame with Aluminum Scales and a Wooden Inlay, provides a secure, lightweight grip along with a classic look. The 3.25" 440C Stainless Steel single-edged blade is .12" in thickness and also finished in Black making it legal in most municipalities while providing and aggressive look. All combined this is a great EDC (Everyday Carry) knife while that provides the longevity and durability found in some of the most expensive cutlery! Add to all this, a handy / removable pocket clip and you have a knife perfect that is conveniently suited to most tasks!
As a legal alternative to a push button automatic knife, an impressive unique knife for your collection, or an incredibly useful tool, perfect for daily use, this Spring Assisted Knife fits the bill!
