Re: Movie Switchblades

A couple more I've noticed recently... Elephant (2003) they use a super auto to open a box of guns. A Haunted House (2013) noticed an Italian-style side-opener in the trailer for this one. They've been popping up fairly regular in cartoons like Family Guy and Simpsons recently too I've noticed. I'd ...

Re: Movie Switchblades

Does anyone know what kinds of autos these two are? Both shots are from earlier in this thread. The first is from North by Northwest: The second is from Terminator (anybody recognize the future A-lister in the top shot?): -Mr Jim, I couldn't view any of those 3pics you just posted, it says they've ...

Re: How Does it Work?

I have actually handled the "Masterpiece" and don't remember what mechanism it used! If a S/A OTF uses a cocking LEVER, it is not spring powered all the way out. The Halo uses a cocking bar. Gotcha :D I can only speak for the standard MT single action otf's. I've certainly never seen a disassembled...

Re: How Does it Work?

The "cocking mechanism" puts tension on the spring to either open or close the knife. Sorry, I don't have pictures. Wait a minute! Are you talking about a dual action OTF, or a single action OTF?
