262,32 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.

CPM Cru-Wear - high-carbon premium air-hardening tool steel with a hardness of 60-65 HRC. Produced by US Crucible Industries according to the CPM process (Crucible Particle Metallurgy) as an improvement on the manufacturer's conventional Cru-Wear and D2 steels. Manufactured according to the CPM process, it is more resistant to chipping and cracking than most conventionally manufactured tool steels. It is not stainless steel. For steel to qualify as stainless, it must contain at least 12% chromium. CruWear contains 7.5% chromium but still offers a good level of corrosion resistance. It contains a high 1.1% carbon, 7.5% chromium, 1.6% molybdenum, 2.48% vanadium and 1.15% tungsten balance for key properties: hardness, toughness, edge retention, machinability, wear resistance and ease of sharpening. It is not easy to find steel that performs so well in so many categories.
Compression-Lock - (similar to Liner-Lock) a blade locking mechanism patented by Spyderco (made in the USA). Extremely durable, it provides extreme strength and ease of use. Located on the back of the handle, it prevents the knife from being closed accidentally. When releasing the lock, the fingers are not in the way of the folding blade.
Blade - with a modified Clip Point profile, finished with an elegant satin finish. Plain blade with Full Flat Grind, which increases cutting performance and reduces the weight of the knife. Enlarged 14 mm round SpyderHole (Spyderco patent) for opening the knife, even when wearing gloves. The notched thumb rest, the ramp (spine jimping) and (finger choil jimping), the notched undercut for the index finger between the handle and the cutting edge make it easier to work with the knife.
Handle - made of Micarta composite, a virtually indestructible material that is resistant to weather, chemicals and mechanical damage. The non-slip texture makes the handle easier to hold, even with wet hands. The grips are attached to the steel liners with Torx screws. The folder is equipped with a metal clip with 4-way clip positions. There is an enlarged hole (lanyard hole) in the back of the handle for pulling a lanyard or safety rope.
