Assisted opening knives...

[Tajbral]

CRKT's Squid is one of their most popular knives that is manual in operation, but they now offer an assisted opening version of the same knife, so I guess they thought it would be worth it to market to both sides of the aisle. The Ontario Rat-1 also has an assisted version I believe. Like I said, I like them all, but I think it's interesting the way the knife market has trended from A/O to mostly manual opening knives. The number of A/O knives being produced seem to continue to dwindle as time goes on.

That's a solid Kershaw edc rotation! What's the orange handled knife? That's the only one that I'm not familiar with. How do you like it?

Thanks

I remember that one but haven’t heard of it in a long time. Was very popular for a while.
