The Spyderco Sage Series was designed to feature folding-knife lock mechanisms and their inventors. The Sage 5, one of its most successful models, showcases the innovative Compression Lock® developed by Spyderco.
This particular version of the Sage 5 takes the proprietary theme to the next level using a blade made from CPM SPY27, an American-made stainless steel offering an excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The full-flat-ground blade maximizes these properties while retaining all the key features of the Sage 5 platform, including a high-strength Compression Lock, nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners, and a reversible deep-pocket wire clip.
Additionally, its G-10 scales with peel-ply texture come in a distinctive cobalt-blue colour, characteristic of the CPM SPY27 family..
