So what did you see in difference from the counterfeit Halo V and the real Microtech Halo V. I own a real Microtech Halo V, i like to know what your take is on that? I never dreamed of buying one of those fake Halo V because i think its just unamerican to buy a copied knife that origins from america from another country especially China. Those people should be shut down from importing goods that they did not patent and should be put in jail in China.

A DA OTF doesn't operate at all like a SA OTF - unless you consider the blade flying out the front to be "the same." The SA is much simpler, and can be built far more robustly. It's basically a handle with a blade slot and a long coil spring, and a button that holds the blade retracted, and locks it when open. A SA OTF can be equipped with a spring powerful enough to shoot the blade fully into a human if held in contact, and the best example of that is the Russian Ballistic knife that had a spring so powerful it could launch the blade out of the handle like a dart, with striking energy 4x greater than a human arm delivered manual stab. By have a large actuation button with matching blade detents, a SA OTF is quite strong when fully extended if built with adequate blade length retrained inside the handle. The mechanism is no weaker than the garden variety hinged blade when built right - like the Halo series. OTH a DA OTF is an entirely different system. It uses an ingenious system where the actuation button works the internals through a coil spring interface. When retracted, pushing the button forward, extends a long, slender coil spring connected to a tension arm that places the blade under forward tension. The blade is locked in place by a small, retractable lug. When the tension arm slide forward it depresses the lug at the same time it has placed the blade base under tension so the blade suddenly unlocks and flies out, being carried to its forward lock by inertia. The forward lock is basically a mirror image of the rear, and when the actuation button is pulled back, a forward tension arm applies pressure as it moves aft, releasing the lug and the blade flies into the handle and locks in place. The actuation springs could be sized larger to deliver a stronger opening push, but this would mean a much stiffer button and much larger handle body to house the oversized parts. While a DA OTF could be sized and scaled to be strong, it cannot be "stronger" than a SA design, nor more reliable in action. A quick snap of the wrist while actuating the blade going in or out can easily sap enough blade inertia to malfunction the knife. Which is "better?" Generally speaking the DA OTF is more convenient because it can operated with one hand, but they tend to have greater tolerances to insure the blade has the least resistance possible - remember a piece of paper can stop the blade. With that said, they aren't under much stress at all when it comes to stabbing into human tissue - or a substitute. For someone who wants the next best thing to a fixed blade dagger in an OTF, the SA with quality construction and powerful spring is ideal. They launch hard, lock up solid and have larger engagement surfaces and can have much closer blade fitment to the handle slot because the blade has positive force applied throughout the entire launching stroke. Because the spring is basically static when cocked, the factory spring can be replaced with a stronger spring capable of firing the blade through heavy clothing, and it's easily held in place by the large locking button. Much derision is heaped on Chinese copies of the Halo V and VI, but they are amply strong enough for a street fight, and stronger than a DA OTF design - even one built by MT.

You literally just asked a knife manufacturer which of their knives are best for stabbing people. Combine that with thinking knives are even viable for self defense and you've proven how intelligent you are. Good running shoes are the best self defense. Confidence in your hands is the second, and a distant third is a firearm. Without years of training, even a rock or a stick is way better than a knife for self defense. Theres a saying we have, the loser of a knife fight is the guy that dies in the street, the winner is the one that dies in the hospital. Seriously, reconsidering the way you think, at this point, is your most valuable self defense tool. Some free advice from a 20+ year firearms amd cqc instructor. Take that as you will.

I'd love to see how the insides of the handles look on these knives after these tests. I've never said Microtech is junk, they're not. However, I won't personally pay for a knife with an ALUMINUM handle. I don't care what blade steel you have (blade steel science isn't much of one anymore) in one, who may have ground or polished the blade, what it's named, etc. An aluminum handle is basically, in my opinion at least, no better than pot metal.
