What comes out the other end? Is that a tool? Have never seen one.

What comes out the other end? Is that a tool? Have never seen one.

The Hydra is a single-action OTF auto—the springs only open the blade, they don’t retract it. That’s the “handle” to retract the blade.

ETA: Here’s Heretic Knives demo’ing the Hydra

And they fire a lot harder than that big guy in the video lets on...A DA auto (which also retracts) is whimpy and mainly coasts open, lucky to perforate a paper bag which bag strike will stop it shy of locking open, while the SA auto is powerful and can perforate cardboard or you....not like a ballistic knife with even stronger spring, but, nothing to trifle with, and they work when dirty...very dependable type, only "downside" being two hands to close.
