Buying a mid-size switchblade automatic knife, things to consider.
The mid-sized automatic knives are, in our experience the most versatile in all available sizes. They combine the deterrent ability of a switchblade knife along with the practical requirements of classics single-bladed pocket/folding knife, and therefore, one should consider the following when thinking about acquiring one:

Consider weight. There is a good correlation between the construction-quality of a switchblade automatic knife and its weight. Cheap mid-size switchblades are usually light, around 4 ounces. The quality mid-size switchblades go with 6oz and more; they will last you for life but are not really pocket-friendly. One solution would be to buy a mid-size switchblade automatic knife with an aluminum-handle from a well-reputed source.
A mid-size switchblade of 6oz and more should have a clip. Pay close attention and check the type of clip it has. Some come with a strong clip integrated into its handle’s design, resulting in a completely different layout of that handle sides; in other words, the handle sides are not made the same.
440C steel is a must. A mid-size switchblade is meant to perform all pocketknives functions; deterrence being only a small part of them.

The Bottom Line: a mid-size switchblade knife is something that you might want to carry with you all the time; expecting it to function smoothly and keep its edge for a reasonable amount of work done. Think a lot of usage, tasks and practicality, before you think tactical, fighting and such.
