Need a Switch Blade?

It will lift the lock. What color did you get. I got the bone. Bought 5 so far. Gonna be gifts to friends in low places.

I bought the bone also. Thanks for telling me how to close the blade. Once I know how it’s simple. Those cheap switch blade knives I had as a kid had tin handles crimped on. I don’t remember how much they cost, less than a dollar I’m sure because we were poor.
I’d buy those cheap pocket knives for fifty cents and they weren’t sharp and I couldn’t sharpen them. No telling how many times I cut myself on them.
A switch blade knife to me-and I could be wrong-is not a hobby knife- whittle etc. To me it is a street knife for fighting or for someone who collects knives. Right or wrong?

They are automatic letter openers.

I’ve owned a couple of autos and have never been in a fight with one. I’ve opened a bunch of boxes with them and I’ve used them to cut baling twine off of bales and equipment—it’s super handy to have an automatic opening mechanism when you’re wearing leather work gloves. It’s the same idea behind the switchblades they gave to pilots to cut away the parachute rigging if they had to eject; you don’t want to be fumbling with opening the knife while you have bigger fish to fry.

I’ve thrown those orange survival knives away regretfully,didn’t need them on a helicopter but like a lot of things I’ve tossed-wish I had them now.

I just looked and they discontinued that particular knife.

TEMU wont show the button on the other side. This knife has 4 rivets. Those are the switch blades.
$8.06. YMMV

Not a toy. Very sharp. It's a novelty item.

They are very deceptive. Gotta check dimensions for everything. Their photos are rigged to make things appear larger. Some stuff is ok.

Holy crap, tried to open the link without out realizing it was Temu.
Link almost took over my browser. Couldn’t delete it, nothing.
Had to reboot my phone to get rid of it. WTF?
