The Spyderco UK Penknife Lightweight Dark Blue CPM S110V is the long-awaited companion to the famously best-selling Spyderco UKPK (Spyderco UK Penknife).
The original Spyderco UKPK was developed in response to UK knife carry laws (see the Heinnie Blog for more details). The UKPK has since become _the_ cutting tool for knife users and world travellers. The UK Penkinfe was the founding member of Spyderco's SLIPIT non-locking knives. The notch-joint mechanism holds the blade safely open during use, but does not lock it mechanically.
In this version, a premium steel has been used, in the form of CPM S110V Stainless. This steel is rich in vanadium and niobium carbides, which lend themselves to high wear and corrosion resistance.The high quality blade is paired with an injection moulded FRN (fibreglass reinforced nylon) handle in the deep blue colour which is shared with all Spyderco's elite CPM S110V series of knives.
The knife is finished off with Spyderco's legendary wire pocket clip, reversible, allowing both left or right side, tip up carry.A true legend of the UK knife world has been reborn.
