HEY YA, AAPK KNIFE WIELDIN' PSYCHO'S !!!!!!
GOT ANOTHER COOL ONE IN .......HERE IS MORE OF A "FIRST LOOK" than a REVIEW,i guess....
SPYDERCO
SPY-DK
or model # C179 ------ this is the orange version so add "OR" to end for : C179OR
this is a nice lil user knife......
top notch quality...as usual from SPYDERCO
i have carried clipped to pocket.....but am gonna remove the clip and try it as a POCKET KNIFE.....
i PERSONALLY like a larger POCKET CLIP KNIFE for day to day carry......this size for ME....is more a sunday knife if used with pocket clip
Made for DANISH LAWS.....
MADE IN ITALY
BY A USA COMPANY
i have nothin but good ta say so far....and spyderco's web page can tell the SPECS better than i can...so i will copy and paste that
i like to try NEW steels so the N690Co ought to be cool in the long run,as a side benefit.
VERY MUCH LIKE A TRADITIONAL FOLDER.......1/2 STOPS....AND NO LOCK.
The Spy-DK™ is based on the platform of Spyderco’s revolutionary UK Penknife, but specially modified to allow it to conform with Danish knife laws. Its blade is full-flat ground from Böhler-Uddeholm’s premium N690Co stainless steel, but its length is reduced to 68mm (2.69 inches). The Trademark Round Hole™ clearly identifies it as a Spyderco knife and provides a handy purchase for two-handed opening, but the hole is purposely small to prevent one-handed blade-opening methods. Its stout notched-joint mechanism is also powered by a strong spring that helps hold the blade securely in the open and closed positions, supporting its safe use as a cutting tool while precluding one-handed opening.
The Spy-DK’s lightweight handle is constructed of injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) scales attached directly to the stainless steel back spacer/spring. The molded checkered pattern on the scales and a textured index-finger choil at the juncture of the blade and handle ensure a secure grip and allow the user’s index finger to serve as a natural stop to prevent unintentional closure during use. A reversible deep-pocket wire clip provides both left and right-side tip-up carry, keeping the knife accessible for immediate use while naturally blending with virtually any color of clothing.
Although created to conform with Danish knife laws, the Spy-DK’s highly functional design and socially friendly demeanor make it a perfect choice for knife users everywhere. It combines convenient clip carry and a purposeful two-hand-opening into a design that redefines the non-locking pocketknife.
length overall 3.60" (91 mm) blade length 2.69" (68 mm) blade steel N690Co
length closed 6.29" (160 mm) cutting edge 2.30" (58 mm) weight 1.9 oz (54 g)
