Black Eagle Retractable Sheath Knife

Post by Mario »

Does anybody know where one might find one of these? Always thought they were a cool concept for a knife. An OTF that technically isn’t an OTF as the blade remains stationary and the only automatic action is a blade cover that shoots in and back out with a switch. I believe they were created to get around the switchblade laws in some places.

I remember seeing it for sale on Amazon at one point, believe it or not. If one of you has one you wouldn’t mind parting with, let me know. Thanks!

Right, Tom. There was also the “Black Dagger” that had the look of the Super Automatic.

The weren't the greatest of quality. The fixed blade develops play over time and can be as bad as the cheap OTF knives of the day.

I think that guy is going to be waiting for some time before anyone opens the bidding at $50 for that knife. $20-$25 maybe...
