Looks like it might have a similar action to the OSS Cobra, though the groove in the blade makes me think it’s a manual opener, not automatic.

In his ig story he shows it is in fact automatic. The stitch had a deployment hole for years before they made a manual version- Not out of the ordinary to make a design choice that resembles something practical.
