my brother has a similar Kershaw by Ken Onion; don't know what it's called but it looks pretty similar, and it has one of those powered assists. it's pretty quick. all you do is give it a little nudge with the thumb, and, after you open it just a little the spring dealie takes over. my brother has a little wrist flip that he incorporates into the move, which gives him an opening you'll miss if you blink. (I'd like one myself, but as it happens I usually carry a CRKT M-16-14, which occasionally likes to open a bit, now that you mention it, Bogie.)
