One of the Kershaw Ken Onion speedsafe designs... Very quick one finger opening with either hand. Opens with a spring not a flip of the wrist... Like a switchblade but legal. I've carried the scallion model for 5 years now. You can be carrying something and pull the knife with the other hand, deploy blade, cut, close blade and put back in pocket with one hand in a matter of seconds. The blades sharpen easily and are set in place with a thumb operated liner lock. This model includes a pocket clip and a crossbar safety that is actuated with the pnky of either hand. The scallion is under $30 at Walmart and is available with a serrated blade.
