Assisted openers - are there any I'm unaware of?

[swingshot]

Well, I've seen the Kershaws, The SOG'S (not keen on them)
and the forthcoming ones from Cuda (getting both)

But are there any other quality manufacturers out there producing this type of knife?

I've developed a real soft spot for them....

TIA

Timberline makes the Discovery. Great action.

Have you handled their aluminum handled Flash versions? IMHO, it's a "night-n-day" difference from the Zytel models. Also, the Blink and Twitch (at least the prototypes I handled) have nice actions.

Most complaints I've heard have been in reference to Zytel handled Flashes, so I was just wondering if you've tried the other ones.

look into the kershaw speed assist knives by ken onion, i believe they were the first to implement assisted opening production knives
