Details

A person wise in judgment and experience is considered to be a Sage, gaining this title through trial, error and growth. Spyderco’s 30-year pledge to knife crafting and learning to make better knives at every available opportunity has delivered a knife worthy of the title: The Sage. Part of an ongoing series of folders in the Prestige line, the Sage showcases a variety of different and ingenuous locking mechanisms in an exceptional design. This Lightweight version comes with Spyderco's proprietary Compression Lock, flat-ground CPM-S30V blade and hexagonal patterned, bi-directional textured FRN handle scales.

Brand new, direct from Spyderco Knives, Taiwan.

Blade: A classic leaf shaped blade is delivered in fully flat ground, satin finished CPM-S30V for a great balance of slicing geometry, piercing capability and durability. A 13 mm RoundHole provides easy ambidextrous deployment on a smooth, phosphor bronze washer pivot and the new pivot bushing which delivers the much loved "drop shut" action. For optimal safety and control during use the jimped thumb ramp and index finger choil duo are unbeatable.

Handle: Dual barrel spacers span the inset, skeletonized stainless steel liners which support bi-directional textured FRN (Fiberglass-Reinforced Nylon) handle scales. Bi-directional FRN delivers amazing traction in the hand while being easy to maintain and impervious to the elements. Exceptionally ergonomic in design, the handle is comfortable enough for extended daily use. Spyderco's innovative Compression Lock mechanism offers rock solid lockup, ease of operation and added safety thanks to being able to close the knife without putting the fingers in the path of the blade. See more below. A hollow tube is provided for lanyard attachment.

Carries via a reversible, tip-up only, deep carry wire clip.

Compression Lock: A lock mechanism that uses a leaf-like spring from a split liner in the handle to wedge laterally between a ramp on the blade tang and the stop pin (or anvil pin). Developed and patented by Spyderco, it provides extreme lock strength and ease of use.

CPM-S30V: A powdered stainless steel with high levels of edge retention and corrosion resistance S30V was developed specifically for use in knife blades. The powdered process gives it a very refined grain, improving the sharpness and toughness. S30V is a great, all around steel with high levels of performance.
