Spyderco Ladybug 3 Salt
Item #: SPCLYLP3
$60.95
Spyderco's® Ladybug 3 has been a best-seller for years. Clip-less and designed for carrying on a keychain but unlike most keychain knives it s a serious working tool.
The knife and diving world has searched for years for a steel with high-performance cutting abilities that cannot rust. A Japanese steel foundry recently introduced H1, a steel that fits those specifications. H1 is a PH steel, meaning it is a precipitation-processed alloy, that's rolled hard without heat-treating and has .1% nitrogen which acts like carbon, but does not react to chlorine to make rust. Surprisingly, it holds a sharpened cutting edge comparable to the premium knife steels being used in the industry today.
The new improved 1-3/4" blade of H-1 65 Rc., is thicker from tip to pivot with a larger round hole and the jimping at the back of the blade improves traction. No clip. Measures 2-7/16" closed. Made in Japan. The slip-resistant handle is yellow fiberglass reinforced nylon with a volcano grip texture. Weighs nearly nothing - 0.6 oz. Suggested retail is $80.50.

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.
