Typical quality from the American manufacturer Spyderco. The only drawback of this folder is its price. Nevertheless, the top-quality materials, especially the blade steel, precise craftsmanship, and durability make using it extremely enjoyable.
Lightweight yet robust, this knife is ideal for everyday carry (EDC) as well as tactical use, crafted by Kelly McCann—a former US Marine officer, anti-terrorism instructor, and specialist in self-defense.
The wharncliffe blade is crafted from CPM S30V powder steel, renowned for its outstanding edge retention, superior durability against mechanical impact, and excellent resistance to corrosion. Featuring a low flat grind, the blade’s geometry provides both the tip and cutting edge with exceptional toughness. The milled surface above the grind also contributes to maintaining minimal overall weight.
With a generous thumb hole—Spyderco’s patented and trademarked design—the blade allows for ambidextrous, glove-friendly opening. Aggressive jimping along the spine delivers a stable thumb rest, prioritizing comfort and safety in operation. When deployed, the blade is securely held in place by a dependable compression lock.
An ergonomically contoured handle, constructed from G10 fiberglass laminate and overlaid with carbon fiber, provides superior grip and durability.
For convenient daily carry, a spring-tensioned, reversible pocket clip offers four-way mounting options (tip-up or tip-down on either the right or left side).

Spyderco is an American company based in Golden, Colorado, founded in 1976 by Sal and Gail Glesser. The brand's origins are linked to the invention of the “Portable Hand,” which gave rise to the company's name, and in 1978, the innovative Tri-Angle Sharpmaker® was introduced. The breakthrough came in 1981 with the launch of the C01 Worker knife - the world's first model with a carrying clip, the distinctive Spyderhole opening, and the serrated SpyderEdge blade. Spyderco was also a pioneer in the use of new materials, being the first to introduce CPM S60V powder steel and H-1 stainless steel, designed for use in marine environments. For years, the brand has been collaborating with renowned knifemakers, including Al Mar, Ernest Emerson, and Marcin Slysz, creating unique models that have gained iconic status. The stylized spider logo symbolizes both the company's origins and Spyderco's values: precision, innovation, and high performance.

The knife is perfectly made, very sharp. I've been using it daily for several weeks and haven't had to sharpen it even once. My favorite model among the 4 Spydercos I have in my collection.
