Robin® 2 Lightweight Black<Spyderco Discount

Much of the byrd Knife Line is being upgraded through a process called C.Q.I. or constant quality improvement. As the line broadens, existing models receive upgraded enhancements such as improved ergonomics, four-way pocket clips, and high-performance full-flat ground blades.

The Robin 2 Lightweight is refreshed with these new features. Its mid-size makes the Robin2 an easy knife to carry every day in an office or outdoors. Its full-flat ground blade is high-carbon 8Cr13MoV stainless steel with a comet-shaped hole for one-hand opening/closing. Jimping (crosshatching) dots the spine, making a textured section where the thumb rests, creating tactile resistance that restrains the folder from sliding and slipping when cutting. The FRN (fiberglass reinforced nylon) handle is molded with Bi-Directional Texturing™ with a fish-scale pattern. The scales hold the knife steady while cutting, even in hands that are wet, slick, or gloved. The welcome addition of a four-way clip offers the option of carrying the folder tip-up/tip-down or left-right-handed, and a lanyard hole at the back of the handle accommodates a secondary-retentive thong or cord. Custom knifemaker David Boye’s dent feature is a half-moon-shaped snip of steel removed from the lock’s release lever as an added safety feature to the back lock.
