Spyderco Polestar
Item #: SPC220GPGY
$90.95
The Polestar was inspired by the best-seller byrd Raven 2 knife design. The lightweight, ergonomic handle features stainless steel liners and textured gray G-10 scales. A strategically placed relief cut in the obverse side handle scale and liner allows easy release of the liner-style lock mechanism and makes the one-handed operation of the knife simple and instinctual. The reversible & removable pocket clip offers a choice of right or left-hand tip-up or down carry options.
The 3-3/8" blade is made from American-made CTS® BD1 stainless steel and features Spyderco's Trademark Round Hole™ for quick, ambidextrous, one-hand opening. Unlike the Raven 2, the Polestar's cutting edge extends to the full length of the blade and does not have an index-finger choil. This maximizes the usable length of the cutting edge and allows powerful cuts with the heel of the blade.
The steel has a hardness of 55-57 Rc. The closed length measures 4-1/2". Weighs 3.8 oz. Made in China. Suggested Retail $121.00.

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.
