LC200N - (also known as Z-Flint) ultra-corrosion resistant modern high nitrogen martensitic tool steel. Quite hard (60 HRC), it provides a combination of excellent strength, edge holding, chipping resistance and extreme corrosion resistance. Produced through a combination of the PESR process (pressurized electric slag remelting) and smart forging technology, resulting in an incredible increase in steel purity and a very fine, homogeneous microstructure. It contains 0.3% carbon, 15% chromium, 0.5% nitrogen, 0.95% molybdenum, 0.5% nickel and 1.0% manganese. Manufactured by ZAPP.

SpyderEdge - (Spyderco patent) a new serrated Spyder blade with improved edge geometry, consists of alternating one large and two small teeth, the so-called two-step. This pattern increases the length of the cutting edge by up to 24% compared to a straight blade. Ideal for cutting hard materials, plastics and fibrous materials such as ropes, belts, among others.

Blade - with a Wharncliffe profile finished in elegant satin. The blade is fully serrated, brought out with a full flat grind that gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. To make it easier to control the blade, a section of the blade's back is covered with an upper jimping, notched thumb rest. A small hole, characteristic of Spyderco knives, has been placed under the ramp.

Handle - tang of the knife with grips, made of G10 composite, practically indestructible plastic, insensitive to weather conditions, resistant to chemicals and mechanical damage. In the front part you will find an opening for the index finger, this type of grip prevents the hand from slipping on the blade. Simple, solid construction guarantees many years of use. In the rear part of the Handle, a protruding section of the tang forms a glass striker, it also contains a lanyard hole, a hole for a safety or decorative cord.

Sheath - protects from falling out and moisture, allows quick retrieval of the knife. The holster can be worn around the neck with the included ball chain or clipped to the accessory with the G-Clip™ attachment. The case is made of Boltaron® thermoplastic, a newer generation of thermoformable material with the same applications as Kydex. Holsters and pouches made from Boltaron are distinguished by their superior resistance to scratches and chemicals. They are also harder and more durable than Kydex, with better performance under extreme temperature fluctuations.
