Discover the Meerkat – one of Spyderco’s most innovative folding knives, now available in a stunning Sprint Run edition crafted for UK knife enthusiasts. Renowned for its unique Phantom Lock™ mechanism, the Meerkat stands out from other EDC knives.
This clever locking system, inspired by traditional “scale-release” folders, operates by rotating the ends of the handle in opposite directions to smoothly and securely deploy the blade. This exclusive UK edition elevates the Meerkat’s distinctive design with a premium blade made from Carpenter® Technology’s Micro-Melt PD#1. Specially formulated for exceptional wear resistance and toughness, this advanced steel benefits from the CarTech® Micro-Melt powder metal process, which ensures a fine, homogeneous microstructure for outstanding durability and edge retention.
The full-flat-ground PlainEdge™ blade features a non-reflective titanium carbonitride (TiCN) coating, combining superior cutting performance with a stealthy look. The handle is injection-moulded from robust fibreglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) in a striking deep burgundy shade, offering a secure and comfortable grip. Staying true to the dramatic black-and-burgundy aesthetic, all hardware—including the reversible, tip-down, deep-pocket wire clip, full stainless steel liners, and handle hardware—is finished in durable black coatings.
