is this knife open with a push of a button? like an automatic knife? are there any other cheap but still good quality knives like this?

This knife is a manual knife. It is not an automatic, so it does not open with a bush of a button.

This knife is a back lock knife. You need to depress the metal latch on the spine of the knife and press the back of the blade down. Be careful not to close the blade on your fingers!

It takes a little practice but works great. Just push the knife all the way back in your front pocket. That way the hook can catch and open the knife. Grab the knife and pull up with a quick motion and knife should open up.

Madame T. DeFarge, I have purchased many of the stiletto knives on here, and this is the best one, as far as ease of use and action. You can open it very easily/quickly with just your pointer finger. If you look at the picture, the little 'nub' near the top of the handle on the right side is the 'trigger'. Just be careful because that blade does swing around quite swiftly.

No, but has very smooth action. I was use to assisted opening and now that I have broke this knife in it opens just as fast.

You definitely can flick it open, all you have to do is push the little white nob slightly up and flick, you can do it very quickly. Thats my favorite part about the knife. Dont even worry about the price, its a great knife!

It's spring loaded. You flick it open using the lever on the back. It's super quick and it's a super sharp knife.

No, but it opens nicely with a flick of the thumb studs, sweet little knife for the price. Nice quality!

I bought one from them, it shipped fast and didnt have any problems with it. Good knife but if i had to buy another one it woukd be the one without the double ...opener flick things at the bottom of the blade. Its too wide and scratches your hand when you put it in your pocket.

No, this knife, while sharp and solid, is pretty slow to open. Definitely not an EDC / self defense blade. Even with practice it takes about five seconds to go from pocket to open and ready. If you want speed, you need the Smith and Wesson Black Ops 3, very high quality blade and super fast to open.

No but it's the smoothest and fastest opening knife of it's kind. The liner lock won't break your thumb when you go to close the blade, either. It's my favorite knife and I love its heft although it may hang a little heavy in certain type pants. But I wear blue jeans so no problem. I love the handle, also.

There is no button that makes the knife spring open. You pull out the blade manually.

It's also called a assisted pocket knife.I has the lever on top that you press down on and blade pops out.To get the blade back in there is a Black lever you push out and it locks the blade back in. They have the push button in the middle but truthfully I prefer this one over that.Well made knife, u can't beat the price.Hope I helped u.Have a great day .

There is a thumb notch along the spine of the handle that you can flick, making the blade jump out quicker. However, on this knife, it doesn't flick out to a locking position like most other assisted open knives. Its still a good blade though.

There is a tiny switch behind the push bar to close it, That's a lock. Slide that little switch back towards the rear of the knife. the blade is probably locked

No, it is a spring assisted knife. You will flip it open and the spring will complete the action. It is a fast opening knife, just not the type, where you press a button and it opens.
