ASSISTED OPENING KNIFE FAQS  

• What is an assisted opening knife?
  A BudK assisted opening knife has a mechanism that helps open the blade partway when pressure is applied to the thumb stud or flipper, making deployment quick and easy without being fully automatic.
• What’s the difference between an assisted opening knife and an automatic knife?
  Unlike automatic knives, which open fully with the press of a button, assisted opening knives require manual pressure to start the blade's movement before a spring mechanism completes the action.
• Are assisted opening knives durable for everyday carry?
  BudK assisted opening knives are built to handle daily tasks with robust materials and reliable mechanisms, making them a popular choice for everyday carry.
• Are assisted opening knives legal to carry?
  Laws regarding assisted opening knives vary state by state. Please check local laws and regulations before purchasing or carrying an assisted opening knife.
