For those of you who can't legally own automatic knives, this is the next best thing. The Gentleman is a spring assisted knife.
The difference between these and switchblades is that you open this knife by using the thumb stud found on the blade to start the blade. After that, the spring takes over and slams the blade the rest of the way open.
It opens lightning fast, just like a real push button automatic knife, however it is legal in most states!
The black G-10 plates with its brightly colored, Titanium Oxide coated stainless steel blade make for a durable, yet attractive, spring-assisted knife.
Tough and scratch resistant, Titanium Oxide is a thin (1/2 micron thick) low temperature PVD film, that when exposed to variable intensities of electrical currents, transforms into a brilliant prism of colors.
