In 1976, Spyderco proposed that a folding knife should open with one hand. The pocket clip, the round hole, the serrated edge — patents that became conventions. Half a century later, the principle remains. The instrument has matured. The handle scales are crafted from amber-colored bone,beautifully polished, and dovetailed to seamlessly mate with the mosaic damascus bolsters. No part of this knife is hurried. A particle-metallurgy steel developed for Spyderco. Holds its edge longer than S30V. Sharpens cleanly with a stone. Forgiving in the hand, unforgiving in the cut. Meticulously forged by Ed Schempp and his son Martin, the mosaic Damascus steel bolsters are the result of a year-long process involving more than 1,200 hours of painstaking work.
Key Features:
- Decorative Filework. Full stainless steel liners are painstakingly machined on their edges to create a decorative filework pattern reminiscent of the finest custom knives.
- Mosaic Damascus Bolsters. Precision-forged by Ed and Martin, the mosaic Damascus reveals a checkerboard pattern of 36 individual Spyderco “bug” logos, balancing technical precision with traditional craftsmanship.
- Amber-Colored Bone. Beautifully polished, and dovetailed to seamlessly mate with the bolsters, these scales are uniquely reminiscent of classic knifemaking materials.
