Auto knives

[Mtneer]

Is there any significant difference between an auto knife and a good assisted-opening knife (already legal to carry)? For example, I have a Kizer Gemini, an H&K/Benchmade Nitrous Blitz, and a Kershaw Blur. Different mechanisms but all super fast, especially the Kizer. What does an auto offer I don't already have?

The potential to spend more money.

My wife carries a kershaw, that she handles like a chef , favoring it over an auto opening one.
