If someone said name one thing that Spyderco will never make. Guess what it would be.

Companies located in the state of Colorado are not in a good position to make assisted-opening knives. Oregon and Florida, among other states, are auto-friendly. Colorado is not. Besides, Spyderco's claim to fame is opening as fast as or faster than a "switchblade."

My sentiments exactly, James

You've never seen a Spyderco employee open a knife, apparently....especially Sal..=)

who needs an auto?!

However . . . If Spyderco ever subcontracts to a California shop to make a 1-7/8" blade CA-legal (+19 other states) automatic mini Centofante, or maybe just a Ladybug on steroids, I want one!

I'll let somebody else figure out how to make that make economic sense.

Since I got my Rescue, I've also been wondering why would anybody want auto? Or need? Except if we're talking about cars...

I know I felt kind of ignorant after I asked it.

Sorry 'bout that but it probably won't happen. we don't believe that it is worth the legal hassle, especially being a Colorado Company, and we do not believe that there is an advantage of an Auto over a Clipit (except for the "toy" factor).

Besides, there are many already in the marketplace.
