Based on a design created by Hungarian architect Gábor Szakonyi, the Astute™ adds a sleeker, more stylish dimension to Spyderco's Value Folder family. The long, gently curved cutting edge and full-flat grind of its 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade give it impressive cutting power and point utility. Its ergonomic, open-backed handle features full stainless steel liners for strength and peel-ply-textured G-10 scales to ensure a secure grip. The liners also serve as the heart of the knife's sturdy LinerLock mechanism and anchor its four-position pocket clip, which works in concert with a lined lanyard hole to allow all possible carry preferences.
