The character Jack Reacher uses a knife in the book by Lee Child, "Gone Tomorrow." So what knife did Reacher use in Gone Tomorrow? He used a Benchmade 3300. You can google it. It looks like a very nice knife. It is a double action, out-the-front (OTF) knife. I did not know such knives existed. A double action means there are two springs. One spring will extend the blade, the other spring will retract the blade. That looks very appealing. Most assisted opening OTF knives require a manual retraction, where you yank some lever back to retract the blade. The problem is that this knife sells for $400 to $500, which I think is prohibitively expensive for the average consumer.
At the time of this writing there are videos on YouTube that demonstrate this knife.
