For those in the UK looking for exceptional edge retention in a remarkably lightweight design, the Spyderco Sage 5 Lightweight delivers unmatched performance.
This top-tier version of the Sage 5 Lightweight features a full-flat-ground, satin-finished blade made from state-of-the-art CPM REX 121 tool steel. Known for its exceptional hardness and edge-retention capabilities, this advanced steel contains over three per cent carbon and high levels of tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, and cobalt.
All other aspects of this knife remain faithful to the standard Sage 5 Lightweight platform, including a robust Compression Lock mechanism, nested skeletonized stainless steel liners, a reversible deep-pocket wire clip, and a lightweight injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle.
To showcase the advanced blade material, the FRN handle of this knife is moulded in a distinctive burnt-orange colour.
