Spyderco UK Penknife Salt FRN Green, LC200N Satin Folding Knife (C94PGR)
- UK Penknife Salt FRN Green after the UK banned folders with locking wedges Spyderco has developed a UK version of the folding knife. SlipJoint non-blocking mechanism used in knives. Blade steel LC200N. FRN cladding
UK Penknife Green FRN Leaf Shape Plain, Spyderco has developed a British version of the folding knife after Britain banned folders with locking blades. Equipped with a mechanism Slip-Joint, an excellent tool for most cutting jobs, socially friendly and legal in most countries. Manufactured at the Spyderco factory in the USA (Golden, Colorado).
SlipJoint - non-blocking mechanism used in folders. Uses spring-loaded pressure on the flat notch on the back of the blade to keep the blade open during use. Force is required to assemble the knife. SlipJoint holds the wedge in both the folded and unfolded positions.
LC200N - (also known as Z-Flint) ultra corrosion resistant newer high nitrogen martensitic tool steel. Quite hard 60 HRC, provides a combination of excellent strength, edge holding, chipping resistance and extreme corrosion resistance. Manufactured by combining the process of PESR (electric remelting of slag under pressure) and technology intelligent forging, resulting in an incredible increase in steel purity and a very fine, homogeneous microstructure. Used m.in. by NASA for the production of ball bearings used in the aerospace industry. Contains 0.3% carbon, 15% chromium, 0.5% nitrogen, 0.95% molybdenum, 0.5% nickel and 1.0% manganese. Manufactured by ZAPP.
Head - thickness 2.5 mm in profile Leaf-Shaped (leaf shape). Plain 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. 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 - in green. Made of moled plastic FRN (Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon), glass fiber reinforced nylon. The folder features a wire-made, screw-on clip (left/right) that allows the knife to be carried in the tip-up position tip-up (tip up).
