I figured out a way to reliably flick open my Spydie Centofante 4, since I could do it about one time out of four horizontally, even with the wrist-reversal at the end.

Here's how I did it: from at rest, flick the knife forward/up slightly, then down/back, but here's the trick (and I don't know why it makes such a difference, but it's the difference between worse than 1/4 to 1/1) extend the wrist backwards when your arm is vertical.


Yeah... I'm sleep deprived, but I thought it was cool. :foot:
 
Hehe, strange things in the night huh.

My Centofante4 when i got it home, was a bit sluggish to flick the blade like you say, i cleaned an re-oiled it and now it is a little better to flick open.

Although, i dont flick it usually, it doesn't seem to save any time over a controlled open imho, probably wrong, just how it seems.

Like that VG-10 goodness.
