Spyderco Slym, Folding Knife, 3.42 Drop Point Blade, 7.84 Overall Length, M390 Blade Steel, Plain Edge, Stonewash Finish, Silver, Gray Titanium Handle, Reeve Integral Lock C271TIP
Produced by lionSTEEL exclusively for Spyderco, the Slym elevates Michele Pensato's popular Skinny design with the user friendliness of our Trademark Round Hole in the blade. This lean folder features a full-flat-ground, drop-point blade crafted from Bohler-Uddeholm's M390 particle metallurgy stainless steel. In addition to its fully accessible Round Hole, the stonewash- finished blade also includes a removeable flipper tab and rides on ball-bearing washers for an ultra-smooth action. The Slym's unique handle is precision machined from a single piece of titanium using lionSTEEL's SOLID technology. It also boasts a durable gray physical vapor deposition (PVD) coating and a black-and-white Dark Matter Polar Fat Carbon Fiber inlay on the obverse side. The handle's reverse side is home to a sturdy Reeve Integral Lock (R.I.L.) mechanism that includes a long-wearing hardened steel interface. To keep the knife poised for instant access, the handle also features both a generously sized lanyard hole and a butt-mounted, deep-pocket clip that is reversible for left or right-side carry.

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.
