Efficient Folding Pocket Knife, PlainEdge

If you're looking to try Spyderco for the first time, this knife is a perfect introduction to the brand. Sturdy, sharp, and well-made knife, and while it doesn't have one of the exotic steels of a more expensive Spyderco, it will get any job done for you with ease. The handle is solid and feels great in the hand. The operation is smooth, and the liner lock is sturdy. It's a little heavy, but sometimes I enjoy that in a pocket knife. Great value from a great brand.

My Benchmade Bugout is in the shop for annual maintenance, so I decided to try this one out. Spyderco is a venerable brand for good reason. This edc is excellent for what it is. The steel is solid and sharper than most folks will ever need. It's a very good looking knife. The proportions look just right. It feels good in my fairly big left hand. The action is smooth, but I can't imagine it will ever be good enough to flick open, like my Bugout. The linerlock seems to be about as good as that technology can get. It has a two step close, with a noticeable detent at about 45°. That takes a little bit of getting used to, but I don't resent that safety feature. It's got enough heft that you'll never forget it's in your pocket, but not much more. The two position clip is elegant and effective. In all, this is a great value. It's a combination of lower-cost tech that makes a credible stab at the more expensive edc's. I'm glad I got this one.

Very sharp and feels good quality but the belt clip seemed to be made of aluminum it bent back so far it wouldn’t clip back on securely and I went to bend it back and the whole thing popped off, I don’t see it as a huge deal since it’s my work knife now but still I expected it to last longer than a few days before getting loose

Sweet budget knife! 3” is a great urban carry size, not a mini knife but compact and ...efficient. Haha. Spyderco is known for having more “odd” looking ergonomic knifes, so this is a cool alternative with a slightly more traditional design. With that being said, it is still very much a spyderco with the traditional spider hole, good ergonomics and smooth opening action. The finger choil helps keep good control when cutting. You can remove the back spacer revealing factory standoffs, if you want to save weight. The action was a little stiff out the box but after a little use, became extremely fidget friendly! 8cr13 is Obviously not the best steel but it’s a budget folder so for what it is, it’s a 5 star.

I've had this knife as my edc for about 4 months now. The rust spot on the Spyderco logo comes from me trying to clean off tape residue on my blade with a Clorox wipe and not drying it correctly. I use this for everything, it's my beater knife for work. My coworker dinged up the edge trying to cut a thick gauge wire so I had to resharpen it. After a couple passes it was good as knew slicing through paper like a a hot knife through butter. I would definitely recommend this as an inexpensive work knife that can take a lot of punishment. Only con is the type of steel but for this price it's just fine. Just gotta sharpen it a little more often than other steels. No biggie for me.

The angle on the deploy is not optimal. Great knife. Very slicey.

Really liked this knife, but when in use it’s folding in on itself. It’s basically half a year old with minimal use and I’m having a pretty critical issue with this tool. Like how it looks and feels, but this I didn’t anticipate needing to contact support so soon after buying… Update: to send this in for warranty evaluation, you need to pay to have it shipped and then pay to have it shipped back. This is approx. 1/3 the total price of the knife. Definitely regretting this purchase. Will not be buying again.

A lot of good in this knife but the blade centering is off, which drives me nuts and is typical of Spyderco budget models. A little heavy for the size but makes it feel well built. Comfortable in the hand, easy to deploy, and the lock is easy to engage. No blade play on this one.

Super couteau très pratique par sa taille pour une poche, lame très tranchante. Ouverture très fluide mais après l’avoir huilé avec de la victorinox .Sinon au début il est un peu dur, il faut desserrer légèrement la vis de l’axe de la lame d’un quart de tour. A la limite du centrage de la lame quand il est fermé . En noir il est très beau! Je recommande ce spyderco.

Habe einige Exponate von Spyderco. Sehr gute Qualität. Kann man nur positiv weiter empfehlen.

Looks nice n neat fits perfectly in hand. Sharp strongly built knife . 🔪 Spyderco my favourite make. Never had a problem with any there delivery or merchandise wen u get a spyderco u will be hooked. This is the first not like . As others say. It Efficient that the clip is a wire one not as described for 70bucks ill leave it at that.

Es realmente bonito, funcional, tamaño perfecto.

J’ai reçu ce modèle alors que sur la photo du site l’attache est bien plus solide. J’aimerai recevoir celui avec la bonne description…
