The blade is paired with a lightweight, easy-to-clean, open-backed handle constructed with smooth black G-10 scales. The reverse-side scale houses a single nested stainless steel liner that forms the basis of the knifes LinerLock mechanism. To complement the blade, the knifes liner, reversible deep-pocket wire clip, and all other handle hardware also sport durable black coatings. stands proud above the spine of the handle. A stroke of the index finger against its textured surface propels the blade swiftly and reliably into the open position. Crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, the full-flat ground, satin-finished blade rides on low-friction ball bearing washers and also includes Spyderco signature Trademark Round Hole for additional opening options. The knifes open-backed handle is built with two peel-ply-textured carbon fiber/G-10 laminate scales, one of which is machined to accept a nested stainless steel liner. The skeletonized liner forms the heart of the knifes sturdy LinerLock mechanism and is thoughtfully textured for easy lock release.
