Product Description
The Spyderco Persistence Lightweight C136SBL takes the compact, proven Persistence design and upgrades it with CPM S35VN stainless steel and a lightweight blue FRN handle. This version features Spyderco's fully serrated SpyderEdge, making it particularly well suited for cutting rope, webbing, packaging, and other fibrous materials.
The 2.75-inch CPM S35VN blade is full-flat ground and built for a strong combination of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The serrated edge maximizes cutting aggression while providing excellent performance on materials that can be difficult for a plain edge.
The bright blue FRN handle features Spyderco's Bi-Directional Texture™ pattern for a secure grip without adding unnecessary weight. Stainless steel liners and a LinerLock provide solid blade support, while the four-position pocket clip allows tip-up or tip-down carry from either side.

Knife Depot Take
Our Take: The Persistence Lightweight is an easy knife to overlook until you see what's packed into this version. CPM S35VN, a lightweight FRN handle, full-flat grind, and SpyderEdge serrations make this a very capable everyday cutting tool without the weight or price of many premium folders.
If you regularly cut rope, cord, straps, cardboard, or other fibrous materials, the fully serrated S35VN blade is particularly compelling. The bright blue handle also makes this version easy to spot in a pocket, pack, or toolbox.

About brand
Quick! List the most respected and innovative knife companies you can think of. If you know anything about knives, Spyderco is somewhere near the top. Spyderco Inc. makes some of the most unique and downright bizarre knife designs you'll see on the market, but from the number of passionate fans discussing, debating, and learning everything they can about Spyderco knives, it's clear that the company has done something right.
From the Glesser Family and the Spyderco Crew:
Since starting Spyderco we've been told our knives are different, peculiar, even out there. All true. Thinking beyond established knife industry barriers allowed us to introduce new and radical innovations to the knife culture including: One-hand opening, serrations on a folder and a clip to attach a knife to a pocket.
We didn't go into business to rake in a mountain of dough we're here for more selfish reasons- indulging our passion for creating knives. Spyderco is definitely out of the norm in the knife industry in our dedication to researching and developing fresh, improved and better performing materials all with function and reliability being key.
Someone once said to Sal Glesser, Spyderco's owner, 'You must design in the dark because your knives look so strange.' True again. Our recognizable appearance is a result of designing ergonomic functional tools rather than applying lipstick and nylons to a pocketknife. We may look curious, homely, whatever, but we'll never be called unusable or undependable.
Making knives that consistently deliver reliable high-performance requires an ongoing commitment to testing. In our million-dollar testing facility we examine edge retention with a CATRA machine, look for rust development with Q-FOG, check the force needed to open and close a knife. We also repeatedly test for stress, wear, optimal heat-treating and actively search for higher quality, performance enhancing steels and materials.
As a customer you probably don't think about this, or much care, but it allows us to put forth a promise. When you purchase a Spyderco you are buying a high-quality reliable cutting tool designed and manufactured for peak performance and ergonomic comfort. Those Who Know Carry Spyderco.
