The Spyderco’s Z-Cut knife combines all the advantages of an offset design with a high performance CTS-BD1N stainless steel blade making it a multi-functional food prep powerhouse. Available with a choice of a plain-edged or fully serrated cutting edge, pointed or blunt tip and four color options, there is a Z-Cut for any purpose. This version comes with a Blunt Tip, Plain Edge and Yellow handle.

Brand new, direct from Spyderco.

Blade: A thin, sub-1/16" blade is made from nitrogen-enriched CTS-BD1N stainless steel in a full flat ground, plain cutting edge. The blunt-tip offers enhanced safety while the razor sharp, plain edge delivers clean, precise cuts.

Handle: A durable yellow polypropylene is injection molded directly onto the tang of the blade to form a tough handle that is nearly impervious to the hazards of food preparation. The handles are molded with a pebble texture for enhanced traction when wet and contoured for comfort. The offset handle design delivers a similar feel to the traditional chef knife, offering plenty of clearance from the cutting surface, while pairing with the thinner blade for a wide range of cutting tasks.

CTS-BD1N: BD1N is a high Carbon, high Chromium, Nitrogen-Enriched stainless steel from Carpenter. It offers a working hardness, up to 63HRC, while retaining good toughness and edge stability. CTS-BD1N works well as a knife steel with a fine grain, high corrosion resistance and respectable edge holding ability as well as being capable of handling a thinner (12-15 DPS) cutting geometry.
