And if the goal is to use a folding knife, then there is no more comfortable choice than an automatic knife. Such flick knives were already being made in the middle of the eighteenth century by hand for a small circle of users. In the mid-nineteenth century, the cutlery industry in Sheffield, England, began mass-producing automatic knife models. The Solingen Springer (known as Lever Lock in English) is described and illustrated in manufacturers' catalogues produced beforo 1900. At the end of the nineteenth century, "automatic fever" also gripped the US thanks to the meeting of George Schrade and the Walden Knife Company. At the beginning of the twentieth century, production of the coltello scatto (snapper knife) began in Maniago, Italy. Without one of these italian stilettos, the James Dean classic For They Know Not What They Do might not have become so legendary. The automatic knife makers' target group did not include just glove-wearing workers, farmers, and hunters, but also women, finely manicured nails could not be expected to deal with a nail mark and powerful spine spring (Oliver Lang, "The big book of knives"). "Mala zaiste sile maja slowa, gdy glodny brzuch im sie sprzeciwi" - DANIEL DEFOE. Moskwa zaczela odbudowe imperium od miejsca, w ktorym je tworzyla w XVII wieku - od Rusi, czyli Ukrainy. Kijow pobity wczesniej (niemal bez walki na Krymie w 2014 roku) wydawal sie latwym lupem. Rosjanie pomylili sie co do wszystkich zalozen tej wojny. Zaplaca za ten blad byc moze najwiecej w swojej historii. Jesli nie zdarzy sie cos naprawde nieprzewidywalnego, imperium moskiewskie upadnie i przestanie sie liczyc w globalnej rozgrywce (Tomasz Sakiewicz, "Nowa era", GAZETA POLSKA, 8 marca 2023).
