Do not use knife switches in your search for avoiding lightning.
My lightning strike went thru a one and half inch gap on my knife switch 
like it was warm puddin'  .  It just melted the knife switch contacts, 
just to show me who is really boss, and then the melted droppings burned 
holes in the nice hardwood floor my Daddy worked so hard to sand, finish, 
and polish.  Was I happy?
