The compact model in the Spyderco Value line of folders, the liner lock Ambitious is a budget friendly 'little big knife' with a permissive sub-2.5 inch blade for compliance with length restrictions. The lightweight bidirectional FRN reduces cost and weight while providing excellent traction and a functional, ergonomic design. This version comes with black scales, matching liners and hardware and a black oxide coated plain edge blade.

Brand new, direct from Spyderco Knives.

Blade: The flat ground leaf shaped blade has a sub-2.5 inch length, legal to carry in most areas, with a handle forward design for plenty of clean slicing plain cutting edge without extra overall length. A non-reflective black oxide coating allows for discreet use while the ambidextrous Round Hole delivers one hand deployment with smooth action on the durable phosphor bronze washers. A jimped thumb ramp provides traction for added control and leverage in use.

Handle: Dual, black skeletonized stainless-steel liners support durable, weather resistant fiberglass reinforced nylon (FRN) scales in an easy to clean, open back construction. Molded bidirectional texturing provides enhanced traction in adverse conditions. A +3.5 inch handle length works for most users while being very compact to carry. One steel liner forms the lock mechanism, with scalloped for ease of operation, delivering smooth operation with solid, secure lockup for safe use.

Carries via a four position stainless steel pocket clip.

8Cr13MoV: Similar to Japanese AUS-8, 8Cr13MoV is a low carbon, high chromium stainless steel with a good balance of toughness and strength. Edge retention is relatively low however it offers good corrosion resistance and takes a razor sharp edge with ease.
