Spyderco Efficient G-10 Black / Black Blade Plain Folding Knife - C216GPBBK

The latest edition of Spyderco's Value Folder family is the Efficient. This compact little folder works very well thanks to its ergonomic design, fully flat drop point blade made of 8Cr13MoV stainless steel. Efficient is sure to be another classic everyday portable work folder, capable of cutting above its weight class.

This version comes with black G10 handle scale, black blade and black hardware.

Brand new, direct from Spyderco.

Blade: The blade in leaf shape with drop point is suitable for piercing and slicing with full flat grind for increased efficiency. There are plenty of blades, and the functional finger selection makes precision cutting a breeze. The blade opens through the Spyderco Round Hole ™, making this knife fully ambidextrous. Black oxidized coating provides a more discreet finish while increasing corrosion resistance and hiding items well.

Handle: The scale is made of textured black G10, an industrial fiberglass composite laminate that is strong, lightweight and nearly resistant to decay and moisture. The scales are attached to black-coated, skeletonized stainless steel inserts that help reduce weight while maintaining a high level of strength. The blade is locked and opened for use with a simple Liner Lock mechanism, providing an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. The handles are finished with black hardware.

To be carried by an ambidextrous (tip-up), black-coated stainless steel pocket clip.

8Cr13MoV: Like Japan's AUS-8, 8Cr13MoV is a low-carbon stainless steel with a high chromium content that has an excellent balance between strength and hardness. Provides good corrosion resistance and is able to produce a razor-sharp edge. Edge retention is much lower than S30V, but close to 440C. Sharpening should be easy.
