I voted to call this knife the Snubby--I lost to more reasonable minds. The Snubnose Auto knife is first and foremost, Cali-Legal. With a blade just a hair under 2" it complies with the California Auto Law as it currently stands. This automatic knife is great for way more than that. The spring is strong and snaps the little blade out with a bunch of force. The blade locks in place very tight. The knife has a belt clip (tip down) that is just perfect. I especially like the shape (drop point) of the blade on this knife. It provides maximum cutting edge. The handle has jimping on the spine to give you a little extra gripping power and the handle also has a nice contour for your forefinger. All of this provides a suprisingly strong grip on such a little knife. This is hands down, my favorite Cali-Legal Blade for under $50.00. It should sell for that much but as you can see--we have it for a bunch less than that. Get yours while they last.
