    I have 3 Benchmade knives. One is automatic, one is assisted and one is just a standard folder. I can get them all open in about the same time, and the standard is my favorite, because it is a semi hollow grind, and will get really sharp. Don't focus, or spend your money on the opening mechanism...just whether the overall design appeals to you.

    You could never own such a knife in most parts of the world, but If I could those Microtech knives look pretty decent, and usually have very good reviews.

    Not automatic, but I used to have a butterfly knife, I worked at a warehouse picking orders it was brilliant for opening boxes whilst hanging off pallett racking 3 metres in the air, but one day it weng missing, either stolen or I left it on top of a pallett and it fell somewhere. Still miss it, and it was fast to open.

    1972 IIRC, I was there in the late '60s too, but I don't remember much of that ...... Golden Gate Park and some guys beating on Conga drums ......
