When the Knife is in your pocket will open up automatically?

no, there is no chance of that, just make sure you are ordering the Tac-Force made model of this knife, NOT Tiger brand, huuuuge difference

This knife has a thumb release like conventional folding knives that must be "held down" while the blade is folded closed. If your knife is stuck open you should unscrew the handle halves and disassemble it.

It depends on how much you tighten it. You can tighten the pivot until you can't even get the blade out if you want. Out of the box though, it was slightly towards the easy to open spectrum. The lock up was tight but it still managed to open easily. Not really worried about it opening in a loose bag easy, but able to flipped out with a thumb or by harshly waving the knife, sure.

No this is not an auto open on this model. Feel free to look at other models I carry that do have assisted open.

The knife locks by opening the knife all the way open until it won't open any more. The lock is automatic, you don't have to do anything. To unlock there is a metal bar just above the G on the BG logo if you look at the picture. The unlock bar is stiff at first but becomes a little easier to use as the knife wears in.

Manual opening. There is a hole for your thumb that allows opening with a quick flip! I have two of these knives and they make excellent gifts!

The knife is under 4in closed, It is perfect in your pocket, not to heavy, you could forget it's in your pocket.

This knife is spring assisted. With the spring force and thumb force it opens in less than a quarter second, which has always been fast enough for me and fast enough to surprise anyone who asked to use a knife.

It flips open. The lever you see on the top of the knife is the button to flip it open.

Do you have the scissor locked all the way open? The first few times I used it, it seemed open all the way, but wasn't I had to make a conscious effort to click it open. ( Same as the knife blades.) when the lock engages, it tensions the spring. Good luck

There's a little medal plate where your thumb goes if you hold it in your right Hand. Press down on it and you can start folding the knife back down. Be careful tho

It doesn't me. I carry it everywhere I can't feel it in my pocket and don't notice it when I use it. Highly recommend this knife

there is a safety switch. You have to push the switch into the "armed" position to open it. The knife stays armed until you flip the switch back down.

Some describe this knife as having Speed Safe Opening when refering to the Speed Assist Opening. If this is the case ........Do to the small size of this paticular knife I use the Flipper on the spine of the knife to open it, rather then the knob on the blade.When pressing on the Flipper, the blade easily begins to open, then the tension bar within operates the Speed Assist Opening of the blade smoothly and quickly. This is a great small pocket knife, very sharp out of the box, affordable, and looks cool.

No, this knife, while sharp and solid, is pretty slow to open. Definitely not an EDC / self defense blade. Even with practice it takes about five seconds to go from pocket to open and ready. If you want speed, you need the Smith and Wesson Black Ops 3, very high quality blade and super fast to open.

Something to fiddle with when playing with the knife in your pocket. Have not a clue. Asked several salesmen and no one knows.

There is a little switch in the slot where knife pivots. Push it aside where it holds the blade safely open and then push the blade closed.
