Compression-Lock - (similar to Liner-Lock) patented by the company Spyderco head 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 - with a thickness of 3.5 mm. Blade wide, smooth Plain, radically curved, derived with a ground flat full (Full Flat Grind). Mounted on low-friction ball bearing pads, ensures smooth rotation of the wedge when opened. Flat grind guarantees excellent cutting edge geometry, reduces the weight of the knife and exposes a satin finish. In the open position flipper plays the role of a functional guard (one-sided hilt) to protect the hand from slipping off the handle.
Handle - covered with precision-machined, rounded plastic covers G-10, provides a comfortable grip, ergonomic streamlined shape and exclusive texture. A cutout in one of the facings guarantees intuitive access to the cutout SpyderHole. Metal single-position clip (right-handed) allows the knife to be carried in the tip-up (tip up).
