Faster than most switchblades, yeah I would say possibly so.
One thing I have noticed is that using the thumbstud to open them could result in getting bit because you get it about halfway open and then BOOM the assist kicks in and the blade leaves from underneath your thumb, now what has almost happened to me with this a few times is that my thumb ends up almost resting on and pushing forward on the cutting edge, because i try to catch up with the blade.
Now in a combat situation where I would have to pull the blade and open it quickly I would be afraid of not thinking to control my thumb and I would end up striking the first blow unto myself.
Just my opinion tho.

I will stick with my emerson commander for now, I mean its open by the time its out of my pocket, so its basically open before you can even engage and auto.
