Falcon Classic Silver Spring Assisted EDC / Hunting Knife with Wood Inlay 3.25" KS32236GY

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
