Spyderco Squeak Lightweight Black Plain Folding Knife - C154PBK

Squeak Lightweight Black Plain, made in Maniago, Italy, the popular folding knife Squeak Slipit by Spyderco. Equipped with a non-blocking head mechanism, legal in most countries. An excellent choice for those looking for a stylish, functional cutting tool for everyday use (EDC). The knife's cutting capabilities are surprising compared to its petite appearance.

Slipit - the most common non-blocking mechanism used in folders. Uses an improved notchet-joint spring mechanism to keep the blade open during use. When folding, the notches generate a smooth resistance as in a knife equipped with a traditional locking mechanism. Slipit holds the wedge in both the folded and unfolded positions. Folders Slipit are also equipped with a (finger choil) undercut for the index finger between the handle and the cutting edge to prevent accidental closing of the blade.

Head - thickness 3 mm in profile Leaf-Shaped (leaf shape). Made of good sharpness-holding, durable high-cobalt stainless steel N690Co with a hardness of 58 HRC manufactured at austrian steelworks Böhler. OsLEEP 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. Round cutout SpyderHole (Spyderco patent) increased the support hump of the ramp, which positions the thumb directly over the opening making it easier to quickly open the blade with cold or wet hands. Notched supports: thumb ramp (spine jimping) and (finger choil jimping), the undercut for the index finger between the handle and the cutting edge make it easier to control the knife.

Handle - textured facings in black. Made of plastic FRN (Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon), glass fiber reinforced nylon. The covers are attached to a sturdy spacer (known as a backspacer / handle liner connector) made of stainless steel, which provides a structural strength and serves as a spring for the non-blocking mechanism of the knife. The folder is equipped with made of wire, screw-on clip (left/right) to carry the knife in position tip-down (tip down).
