Out The Fronts ( OTFs ) Switchblades

  • Out The Front switchblades or OTFs refer to the way the blade deploys. Unlike a side opening switchblade, OTF blades fire straight out of the top of the knife.
  • OTFs come in 2 basic styles:
  • Double action- which means the button is used to open and close the knife.
  • Single action- which uses the button to open the knife and then the charging handle is used to close and reset the knife by pulling back on it.
  • OTFs are very popular, some well-known OTF knives include Pirahna, Delta Force, Titan, Lightning, and many more.
