Review: Perfect entry level Spyderco - 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.
Review: Great knife. Deployment angle is not the same as other Spyderco knives - The angle on the deploy is not optimal. Great knife. Very slicey.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the knife made in Japan ?**
A: No China.

**Q: Where is it made?**
A: China

**Q: Does the blade edge rest on the back spacer when closed? a review of this knife on blade hq said this happens.**
A: I'm sure every knife is a little different, but I do not see any portion of my version that makes contact with the back spacer.  There appears to be 1-2mm between the edge and the backspacer, which to me is more than enough.  I've see tighter tolerances.  I compressed the blade by hand while closed to see if it would budge and I didn't see much flexing.  I know another reviewer stated that the ricasso seems to rest against the backspacer, but I'm not sure how that's possible - with the blade closed, the backspacer starts near the tip of the closed blade and ends about halfway down the handle.  From pivot to about halfway, the knife is an open/pass-through design.  This would make any contact between backspacer and the ricasso/choil area impossible since no backspacer exists there.  Or perhaps I have my knife anatomy wrong.

**Q: Will this knife fit in a 1 7/8 inch pocket?**
A: this folder is 4.04 inches long, closed. it is 1.55 inches high.  No, if you want it mostly concealed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great knife. Deployment angle is not the same as other Spyderco knives
*by C***S on December 18, 2025*

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

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall decent purchase
*by W***R on October 20, 2023*

Been using it as my edc to work for the past five months. It does a good enough job, budget steel so I do sharpen it weekly. It comes stiff out of the box, had to loosen it up and oil it a little bit. My biggest complaint is the finger hole access. I’m right handed and use my middle finger to flick open. The G10 material isn’t cut the same on both sides. One side is fully exposed, the other isn’t, making it uncomfortable to open at times. Other than that, solid knife and I plan to carry it until it breaks, because it also doubles as a pry bar at times.
