In the 1980s, the original Spyderco Endura blazed a trail as one of the first lightweight clip-carry folding knives. It remains one of the most popular Spydercomodels and continues to set the standard for all other knives of its breed.
Its fourth-generation has also inspired a broad range of variations to meet virtually every user's needs and preferences. Their skeletonised stainless steel liners and injection-moulded fibreglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handles distinguish the Endura 4 Lightweights.
This specific version of the design features a blunt, round-tipped blade machined from AUS-6 stainless steel. The holes in the blade reduce its weight to be comparable to that of its live-blade cousin, and, along with the red FRN handle scales, it is recognised as a training tool.
All other aspects of the knife—including its sturdy back lock mechanism and four-position hourglass clip—are faithful to the sharpened versions it represents.
