The eagerly awaited Starling 2, a second-generation model, highlights Spyderco's cost-effective byrd® knife collection.
Intentionally crafted as an easy-to-carry pocketknife, it delivers impressive cutting prowess, weighing a mere 1.1 ounces.
The cutting edge of the Starling 2 boasts a full-flat-ground PlainEdge™ blade made from CTS BD1 stainless steel. Diverging from the often problematic nail nick found in classic pocket knives, its distinctive "comet-shaped" hole supports a hassle-free two-handed opening, underscoring its affiliation with the byrd lineage.
The handle of the Starling 2 features robust stainless steel liners enveloped by textured G-10 scales, providing a confident, slip-resistant hold. A reliable back lock mechanism solidly anchors the blade in its extended state. Additionally, the handle's lanyard hole facilitates the attachment of both lanyards and keychains.
Embodying the essence of a genuine pocketknife, the Starling 2 comes without a clip.
