This style of knife is believed to have been used by Soviets. It used a compressed spring to launch the knife from the body (top) when a firing button was depressed.

    I wonder if the spring could help with armor penetration?
    If the compressed force is higher than one could stab with, tapping the button at the end of your plunge might be enough to break through?
