1. A downhole tool, comprising:
a first implement;
an actuator adapted to actuate the first implement in a first direction;
a biasing device adapted to actuate the first implement in a second direction, opposite the first direction;
a dampener adapted to slow an actuation speed of the first implement in the first direction, the second direction, or both wherein:
the dampener is or includes a guide rod assembly including a guide rod, and an orifice or an integral pressure relief member; or
