Is this normal?

I have a Blue Class Mini Barrage that opens so easily with just a thumb nudge, but... I just received my new 7505-132 Gold Class and there seems to be no assistance in getting the blade open. I have oiled it, and by using my other hand, I can get the blade open easily, but it does not seem to be spring loaded or anything that causes the blade to snap open. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Yes, it's not an assited knife, it's a dual action auto. Normal manual action with the thumb stubs or auto when you press back of the holster.

Thanks. Gorgeous knife, but I sure prefer the snap.

Did you figure out the auto activation?

Press the secret button it will snap

Well, I am not feeling too bright right now. I had to watch a youtube on this thing to figure it out, but yes, I now know how to snap it open. It takes both thumbs to be able to push down the key, but I hope that will loosen up. It will snap hard and there better be no one in the way because this thing will cut. Thanks everyone for the input. For anyone that has one of these, does the push down loosen up a little, it is really hard to push it right now.
