What is this?

Never seen this before

Does it fold out or is it propelled out

I'm sure you press the button and it drops out and locks with gravity. It could possibly have a spring behind it however.

Where did you get that? Don't worry, just stay put, we have some folks from the health department coming over to take a look at that awesome combat knife you have.

Looks like spring loaded otherwise the it wouldn't need the locking bar. Looks like the sphere on the pommel is to reengage the spring.

Beat me to it

OP those are alien weapons designed to stab other aliens in the neck

The McGlaglen "Peskett"close-combat weapon used by OSS operatives in WWII, a combination spike stiletto/blackjack/garrotte designed to silently take out the enemy.

Thank you! It was a mystery to me for a while.

Sounds like a highly useful piece of kit everyone should have.

Oh shit i saw these in a spy book before. They're part black jack and part attaching weapon and if i remember correctly some of them even have a garrotte wire that can be pulled out like a lawn mower pull cord. I think the book was called ultimate spy or something of the sort. I had it as a kid and it focused mainly on world War 2 and cold war technology.
