This is the kind of automatic knife I was looking for, the lock doesn't budge, it looks solid and not overdone, the blade cuts like a dream.

Kershaw Launch 1 boasts a spring-assisted opening mechanism for rapid blade deployment. A conveniently placed button on the handle allows the blade to extend swiftly and safely for the operator.
Blade retention relies on a reliable button lock system, which secures the blade in its open state via a spring-loaded pin.
Crafted from premium powder steel CPM154, the blade delivers outstanding hardness and superior resistance to moisture and corrosion. Enhanced with a blackwash coating, the knife offers a strikingly aggressive aesthetic along with enhanced anti-corrosive properties.
Handle scales are constructed from aluminum and feature a durable anodized black finish. A versatile clip allows for two-position mounting, catering to both right-handed and left-handed carry preferences.

Kershaw is an American knife brand, founded in 1974 by Pete Kershaw in Oregon, which from the very beginning has focused on the highest quality and practical solutions for hunters, anglers, and everyday users. In 1977, the company was acquired by the Japanese Kai Group, allowing it to combine American innovation with Japanese craftsmanship. In 1998, Kershaw revolutionized the market by introducing the SpeedSafe assisted opening mechanism, and in the following years won prestigious Blade Show awards for models such as the Tyrade with Composite Blade technology combining two different types of steel. The brand is also known for its collaboration with renowned knifemakers, including Ken Onion, Ernest Emerson, and Rick Hinderer, which has resulted in iconic models such as the Leek and Cryo.
