Does this knife have a non-slip handle?

It's not grippy,that's for sure. You can wrap it with something grippy, or purchase the micarta scales that are made for it, or even rough up the plastic handles a bit, but no, the handles that come with the knife are not what I call non-slip.

I havnt owned the regular black handle version but I would guess no because this one is also very slippery. However the quality and sharpness of the blade makes up for it

No. There is a button to push on the handle. But it is not spring assisted. Iactually don't even use this knife anymore because of that reason

Nope. It doesn't, and it's a constant annoyance. If that were built in, I'd love this knife without any qualms. That is my one complaint.

The handle appears to be the same material as found on the base. It is molded on and has a rubbery feel so it is non-slip.I have given two of these boxed graters as gifts, one to my son in San Francisco and the other to my daughter-in-law in Fresno and they love them.

This knife does have the FRN handle and according to the Spyderco site it has the phospor washers.I have not taken the knife apart so I cannot swear concerning the washers

No. But the blade is secure when closed. It never opens on me on accident being an open assisted knife.

No, it does not. Check out the SOG Flash II for a similar knife with a locking feature.

It has no grippies, but it doesn't slide. The best cutting board I have ever had!

It is not, but the small thumb grip is very useful and isn't painful to use even after many times opening if the knife is in well condition.

There is a thumb notch along the spine of the handle that you can flick, making the blade jump out quicker. However, on this knife, it doesn't flick out to a locking position like most other assisted open knives. Its still a good blade though.

yes. there's a small lever on the back side and if you apply pressure the blade will flick open. The blade is spring loaded. It's ideal for one-hand blade usage. This is a great knife!

This item was returned some time ago and I honestly don;t remember if it had a handle. My feeling is that no it does not.

No it does not, but it comes with a nice sheath you can put on your belt. And the blade is super nice! One of the sharpest knives if ever used.

Neither of the 2 I've owned has had an aluminum handle, but I would imagine that it being a one handed operable knife that having a little extra weight would be to it's advantage.
