Although it opens just as fast as a switchblade because of its flipper mechanism (a small lever that sticks out the back of the handle), and it’s not a switchblade as the opening of the blade isn’t automatically released by button press. Just keep in mind that this knife isn’t safe for children, and the opening mechanism will only give you that smooth one-handed
