This lot consists of a collection of 4 automatic and single-action assisted-opening knives. The first item is a single-action assisted-opening out-the-front (OTF) knife. The black-finished blade features a central fuller and is marked M&P by Smith & Wesson. The gray and black textured handle displays an embossed M&P logo and a circular Smith & Wesson logo, equipped with a sliding deployment button, manual safety switch, and a pointed glass breaker pommel. The second knife is a double-action OTF pocket knife with an unmarked double-edged dagger blade. The blade has silver-tone accents and a fully serrated top edge. The black textured handle is secured with six silver-tone Torx-head screws and features a conical glass breaker. The third item is a double-action OTF knife with an unmarked clip-point blade. The blade has a partial serrated edge near the choil and a longitudinal fuller. Its black handle features a diamond-pattern grip and a textured glass breaker. The final item is a side-opening automatic folding knife with a tan or bronze-coated drop point blade. The tang is marked PRO-TECH USA. The handle is finished in OD green anodized aluminum with a recessed pivot screw and a circular push-button release.


Condition report:

The Smith & Wesson M&P knife shows significant sharpening wear at the tip where the black finish has been removed, and the handle scales show surface scuffing (Photo 1, 2). The double-edged OTF knife displays moderate surface wear with white scuff marks on the handle and light wear along the blade edges (Photo 1, 3). The clip-point OTF knife shows visible surface dust and light scuffing on the handle (Photo 1, 4). The Pro-Tech automatic knife exhibits heavy scratching, oxidation, and discoloration across the blade coating, while the OD green handle shows edge wear and loss of anodization at the corners (Photo 1, 5).
