I love autos; have several...
just can’t carry them in my home state.

Is a spring assisted opening knife allowed where autos aren't? I carry a few different ones that I really like.

Depends on the state laws.
In my state, yes, assisted openers are legal to carry, but autos are not (unless you are LEO/have certified medical condition). You can own them, though...which is why I have some very nice Microtech and Benchmade letter openers.

Since 2012 switchblades, autos and spring assisted knives with a blade under 4" have been legal to carry in my state. I have several cheap ( $50-$75) autos and OTF that I carry around sometimes. More often than not I'm at work and I carry a beat to hell S&W locker that was probably $20 new. I use it for chiseling, screwdriving and if I use the serrated part I can actually cut some stuff.
