Fastest Folder?

[Will Power]

What's your nomination for the fastest opening folder?
No automatics or suchlike allowed.

At the moment mine goes to Mcusta's basic folder series, it's staggeringly good,you can open it almost as fast as a switchblade and so silky SEKI

Others please!

Well...excluding the wave feature...
I would definately say the BM axis lock.
My BM 710 I can open at a ridiculous speed and close with the same amount.
This is my favorite lock and IMO the most fun/fast.

I'd say my Benchmade Gravitator...a flick of the wrist and it's opened! Thats not touching the thumbstud either...with rock solid lockup to boot

 

[severedthumbs]

hard to beat Bogi or Onion!

It would be hard to believe that any other folder can open faster than an Endura Wave. If we're not considering the wave feature, anything with an axis lock is pretty damn fast.

cold steel ak-47 because the thumbstud has a pocket catch. and my sog x-ray vision.

Other than a waved blade, it would have to be my BM Mini Presidio.

 

[VTguy]

the thumbstud on an AK-47 is basically a wave, my vote goes for the axis

 

[breadman]

Just sampled the Kershaw Groove on a passaround and it opened slick and sure with either hand. Lock was framelock. I have assisted openers that are'nt that smooth or quiet.

Funny that most of you guys say ... "EXCLUDING the WAVE" .... The wave featured folders such as the Emerson line is by FAR the fastest opening folding blade.

 

[Tetsusaiga]

So far all my BM with the axis lock opens silky smooth and fast, as well as my BM Monochrome...

 

[Azis]

CRKT m-16 or any of the carson flippers

My SOG Pentagon Elite II is pretty quick.

 

[Obsidion]

Emerson commander,, opens as you pull it out of your pocket.. fun vid on emersons website for those of you that havent tryed it

My Manix with a zip tie "wave" opens faster, smoother, easier, 100% of the time and is easier on the pockets compared to my Commander or Mini Commander.

I dont know about fastest, but my SOG tomcat is incredibly satisfying to open. It just feels like you could fuck some shit up with it

 

[jlfletcher83]

My benchmade 710 or mini-rukus but the waved endura 4 is by far the quickest

My Benchmade 805 opens amazingly fast with a light push of my index finger. Next comes my 556 mini-Grip. My 710 is also up there, but not quite as naturally quick as my 805.

I am unbeatable with my 550 Griptilian
