T
he Autonomy truly defines the state of the art in modern
automatic knives. Developed based on the demanding
mission requirements of the U.S. Coast Guard’s rescue
swimmers, it features a SpyderEdge™ rescue-style blade
ground from H-1 steel—a nitrogen-based steel that is
completely immune to saltwater corrosion. Its automatic
opening is powered by a coil spring contained within a
removable shroud that allows spring replacement without
disassembling the entire knife. Its oversized firing button grants
quick indexing by tactile sense and is supported by stainless
steel liners for increased lock strength. The button’s spring
is also integral to one of the stainless steel liners, providing
increased tension and eliminating any additional cavities within
the handle that can retain water. This feature, and the knife’s
open construction, allow it to be easily cleaned and dried,
making it the ideal tool for waterborne rescue operations.
Winner of the “Most Innovative American Design” award at the
2012 Blade Show and International Cutlery Fair, the Autonomy
features black G-10 scales, a non-reflective DLC (Diamond-Like
Carbon) coating on the blade and all hardware, and a secondary
safety to prevent unintentional operation of the firing button.
