Tac-Force Titanium Coated Spring Assisted Serrated Combination EDC Knife Gunmetal & Black 3.5"
Tac-Force Titanium Coated Silver 440 Stainless Steel Drop Point Combination Half-Serrated Spring Assisted Knife
The spring assisted 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!
The spring assisted knife, in contrast to a standard automatic switchblade knife, is not opened by pressing an activating button or lever (the button / lever 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. Once the blade has reached a 30-40 degree angle via a manual push of the flipper, the spring is activated causing the blade to slam open the rest of the way !!
Springing open to an impressive 8.25" and weighing nearly 1/2 lb, this Spring Assisted Knife is not for the timid.
The handle of this spring assisted knife, which features a durable Stainless Steel Construction with a Titanium Coating, provides a secure, Heavy Duty Feel and Grip along with a Sleek Look. The 3.75" single-edged Combination Half-Serrated Razor Drop Point style blade is also made of 440 Stainless Steel and Titanium Coated giving it a Dark Grey / Pewter finish whole also providing the longevity and durability found in some of the most expensive cutlery! Add to all this, a handy / removable pocket clip as well as a Glass Breaker 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!
