I have an interesting question... What do our spydies sound like when they open?

I get:

Delica: SNAP!

Cricket: Snick-Click

Ladybug: Tick



the Cricket turns heads when I open it, because it sounds odd... They don't expect a double click...



We are all born with 10 fingers to spare. Those of us with spydies still have 9 to spare, We need a thumb to open our knives.

I couldn't give you sound interpretation,but a comparison of a few I own would be
Chinook:Like racking a shell in a 12 guage pump
Gunting:Like pulling the trigger
Endura:Opening your eyes

Onomatopoeia has always been very difficult for me.

Was going to say that the Wegner, because its a liner lock, has a more hollow sound to it than the lockbacks, then checked my Dyad and it too sounds kind of hollow.

The cleanest, most crisp sound comes from the Calypso Jr., with a similar sound coming from the Goddard, except several notes lower. Click is the word that comes to mind most often, but that probably is more a reflection of my lack of creativity.
