Extremely versatile with a wide, solid and flat American steel blade CPM S30V which provides an incredible balance between durability and edge geometry.

Compression-Lock - (similar to Liner-Lock) Spyderco's patented blade locking mechanism. Extremely durable, provides extreme strength and ease of use. Located on the back of the handle, it secures the knife against inadvertent closure. When releasing the lock, fingers are not in the path of the folding head.

Head - about the profile Leaf-Shaped, thickness 4 mm. Smooth blade Plain brought out full flat grind (Full Flat Grind). The flat grind guarantees a perfect cutting edge geometry with a sharp tip, reduces the weight of the knife and presents a beautiful satin finish. Corrugated support under the thumb (ramp) to operate a folder efficiently. Enlarged 14 mm round cutout SpyderHole (Spyderco patent) allows easy opening of the blade with a glove as well as wet, sweaty hands.

Handle - skeleton liners of stainless steel and facings with G-10, durable, resistant to high and low temperatures, chemicals plastic. In keeping with the design as a potential personal defense tool, each cladding contains a single divot, which aligns with the concave portion of the knife's metal clip to provide an axis of rotation during handle change techniques. The whole thing was bolted together torx for easy twisting and unfolding of the folder. Metal clip with the possibility of fixing in four planes (up/down, right/left) 4-way clip positions. In the back of the cladding, an opening (lanyard hole) on the line.
