It's important to first note that these types of knives are restricted and Federally regulated. Be certain of permissibility in your location including state or local governments and within your reporting bodies.
These are automatic knives which open at the push of a button. An especially important feature to have if your disability, occupation or profession has the potential of limiting your mobility or freedom to access a knife through traditional means.
Most blades are deployed out from the handle side like traditional folding knives and some models open directly from the top (OTF), and the blade is spring open assisted to a fully locked position. These are primarily manufactured for Law Enforcement, Military and Government Agency distribution.
Please note: Sales of automatic knives to Illinois are now prohibited (exceptions are made for knife dealers).
