2 Different types of Automatic Knives

Automatic knives are known as switchblade knives. They have blade tucked inside the handle and is deployed with the press of a switch.

Automatic knives have been there in the market for at least two decades.

People have multiple reasons to use an automatic knife. However, not all automatic knives are the same and their uses vary depending on the environment.

1. Side-Opening automatic knives. Holding strong resemblance to the traditional pocket knives are called side-opening because the blade comes out from one side of the handle. Spring mechanism makes such type of automatic knife safer. Additionally, they are durable and affordable than OTF knives but practical.

2. Out-the-front (OTF) Knives. A bit high on the price but quite popular.

The blade springs from the tip of the handle. OTF automatic knife has more versatile blades that are sharp on both sides.

OTF knives are further available in two forms: Single action OTF and doubleaction OTF knives.

Single action OTF automatic knife: These automatic knives have a release mechanism that only releases the blade and the same switch cannot be used to retract the blade.

Single action OTF automatic knife has stronger springs that open quickly than double-action OTF. Double action OTF automatic knife: With these automatic knives you can both extend and retract the blade. These are more practical and safer than single action OTF automatic knife since they are unlikely to open accidentally.

These are the two most used automatic knives in the market. Based on people’s preferences, both are quite good in their own stand but if you want automatic knives for multi-use then we recommend go for the double-action OTF automatic knife as they are safer and good for longterm.
