Spyderco Bodacious SPY27 Cobalt Blue G-10
Item #: SPC263PCBL
$225.00
A new model for Spyderco, designed by co-founder and Blade Magazine Hall of Fame® member Sal Glesser. The Bodacious™ is a heavy-duty folding knife named after a legendary American bucking bull. Inspired by that animal's strength and indomitable spirit, its sturdy construction offers unfailing reliability. Its broad, leaf-shaped blade is full-flat ground and features a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole™ for swift, one-handed deployment with either hand. The knife's handle is built on a framework of skeletonized stainless steel liners nested within the Cobalt Blue G-10 scales and reinforced by a minimalist stainless steel backspacer. In addition to providing structural strength, the liners form the foundation of the knife's ultra-reliable Compression Lock® mechanism and they also provide a secure mounting platform for its broad-based pocket clip.
Spyderco has long been an industry leader in the use of exotic, high-performance blade steels. After years of using the best materials the world's leading steel manufacturers could provide, they decided it was time to create their own. In close cooperation with Crucible® Industries, Spyderco has developed CPM SPY27—a particle metallurgy stainless steel containing a proprietary mix of alloys, including vanadium, molybdenum, niobium, nitrogen, and cobalt. This remarkable composition, enhanced by the amplifying effects of cobalt and the state-of-the-art Crucible Particle Metallurgy process, is produced exclusively for Spyderco and will be featured in select USA-made models.
This Bodacious showcases the exclusive CPM SPY27 blade steel in the signature cobalt-blue G-10 handle. The blade measures 3-5/8" in length with a hardness of 60-62 Rc. The closed length measures 4-5/8". The pocket clip is reversible for a tip up left or right-hand carry. A lanyard hole at the butt of the handle allows for easy attachment of fobs and safety lanyards. Weighs 4.5 oz. Made in the U.S.A. Suggested Retail is $300.00.

Spyderco
In 1981, Spyderco ventured into the world of knife making by introducing their first folding knife, the C01 Worker. This knife was the first in the industry to feature a round hole in the blade design that allowed for fast, one-hand opening, now the company’s trademark, and the first to feature a pocket clip. The trademarked round hole is the most recognizable feature of a Spyderco knife and it facilitates the easy opening and closing of these knives with one hand while also offering convenient access and maximum control while opening as well as accommodating large, small or gloved hands.
Spyderco’s recognizable appearance is a result of designing ergonomically functional tools rather than applying lipstick and nylons to a pocketknife. Spyderco’s knives may look unusual, but they will never be called unusable or undependable. When you purchase a Spyderco knife, you are buying a high quality reliable cutting tool that was designed and manufactured for peak performance and ergonomic comfort.
