Description:
The Sage 5 from Spyderco Knives has always been known as a slim, lightweight every day carry folder. But this version, out lifts the rest with the addition of super strong Maxamet steel. This stuff was produced to handle red hot steel billets and Spyderco is the only manufacturer to tame it. Expect second to none edge retention. This is paired with the familiar Gray lightweight handles of the Maxamet line. Throw in the solid Compression Lock and you've got one the strongest, lightest EDC's on Earth.
Micro-Melt Maxamet Steel: Produced by Carpenter as a high speed tool steel, Maxamet offers extremely high wear resistance with moderate toughness and a high level of hardness (67-69 Hrc). Edge retention will be very high, outdone by only a few ultra-high carbide, high hardness steels like CPM 15V and Rex 121. Novice sharpeners may have a challenging time. Care is required to prevent corrosion.
