267,56 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Sage 5 Grey FRN, Satin, the fifth generation of the legendary Sage knife with Compression Lock® locking mechanism and Bi-Directional Texture™ FRN grips. The folder with its smooth, flowing lines represents Spyderco's thirty-year track record of innovative knife design.
Micro-Melt® Maxamet, an extremely hard and durable modern American low-friction powder tool steel. Going beyond the performance of conventional tool steels, it comes close to carbide, the ultra-hard materials used to machine other steels. This phenomenal steel is manufactured in the US by Carpenter Technology Corporation.
Compression-Lock - (similar to Liner-Lock) a patented blade locking mechanism by Spyderco (made in USA). Extremely durable, it provides extreme strength and ease of use. Located on the back of the Handle, it protects the knife from inadvertent locking. When releasing the lock, the fingers are not in the path of the folding Blade.
Blade - with Leaf-Shaped profile, 3 mm thick. Plain blade was led out with Full Flat Grind for increased cutting properties. The flat grind guarantees perfect geometry of the cutting edge with a sharp tip, reduces the weight of the knife and presents a beautiful satin finish. The enlarged 14mm round SpyderHole cutout (Spyderco patent) allows the knife to be opened even with wet, sweaty hands. Finger Choil, an arched undercut for the index finger and a notched thumb ramp on the back of the Blade for efficient handling of the folder.
Handle - in gray color, which at Spyderco is attributed to Maxamet wedges. Non-slip Bi-Directional Texturing (Bi-Directional Texturing) covers strengthen the grip even with wet hands. Made of FRN (Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon), a fiberglass-reinforced nylon plastic. Metal wire clip (steel wire clip) with two-position (right/left) attachment. In the back of the Handle a hole (lanyard hole) for a safety or decorative cord.
