Spyderco Efficient Folding Pocket Knife, PlainEdge

If you're looking to try Spyderco for the first time, this knife is a perfect introduction to the brand. Sturdy, sharp, and well-made knife, and while it doesn't have one of the exotic steels of a more expensive Spyderco, it will get any job done for you with ease. The handle is solid and feels great in the hand. The operation is smooth, and the liner lock is sturdy. It's a little heavy, but sometimes I enjoy that in a pocket knife. Great value from a great brand.

My Benchmade Bugout is in the shop for annual maintenance, so I decided to try this one out. Spyderco is a venerable brand for good reason. This edc is excellent for what it is. The steel is solid and sharper than most folks will ever need. It's a very good looking knife. The proportions look just right. It feels good in my fairly big left hand. The action is smooth, but I can't imagine it will ever be good enough to flick open, like my Bugout. The linerlock seems to be about as good as that technology can get. It has a two step close, with a noticeable detent at about 45°. That takes a little bit of getting used to, but I don't resent that safety feature. It's got enough heft that you'll never forget it's in your pocket, but not much more. The two position clip is elegant and effective. In all, this is a great value. It's a combination of lower-cost tech that makes a credible stab at the more expensive edc's. I'm glad I got this one.

Added this model to my Spyderco collection. Great quality as expected. Action is a bit stiffer than my other Spyderco knifes. Will take a bit more work to break in. Great knife.

Very sharp and feels good quality but the belt clip seemed to be made of aluminum it bent back so far it wouldn’t clip back on securely and I went to bend it back and the whole thing popped off, I don’t see it as a huge deal since it’s my work knife now but still I expected it to last longer than a few days before getting loose

Sweet budget knife! 3” is a great urban carry size, not a mini knife but compact and ...efficient. Haha. Spyderco is known for having more “odd” looking ergonomic knifes, so this is a cool alternative with a slightly more traditional design. With that being said, it is still very much a spyderco with the traditional spider hole, good ergonomics and smooth opening action. The finger choil helps keep good control when cutting. You can remove the back spacer revealing factory standoffs, if you want to save weight. The action was a little stiff out the box but after a little use, became extremely fidget friendly! 8cr13 is Obviously not the best steel but it’s a budget folder so for what it is, it’s a 5 star.

This is a Spyderco knife that was made in China. To be blunt, this a poorer quality knife than a $20 Ganzo. The finish is rough, and it doesn't want to deploy with a flick of the thumbhole. You basically have to open it with two hands. The only real positives here are the pocket clip, which is nice, and the size, which is smaller than most Spyderco knives, and any Ganzo knives. It doesn't have the overt appearance of a weapon. It is slowly loosening up with use, but not nearly as good as a Ganzo is out of the box. I would not buy this one again.

Good G10 grip, and the blade steel is nice for the money you pay,

The angle on the deploy is not optimal. Great knife. Very slicey.

Super couteau très pratique par sa taille pour une poche, lame très tranchante. Ouverture très fluide mais après l’avoir huilé avec de la victorinox .Sinon au début il est un peu dur, il faut desserrer légèrement la vis de l’axe de la lame d’un quart de tour. A la limite du centrage de la lame quand il est fermé . En noir il est très beau! Je recommande ce spyderco.

Habe einige Exponate von Spyderco. Sehr gute Qualität. Kann man nur positiv weiter empfehlen.

Looks nice n neat fits perfectly in hand. Sharp strongly built knife . 🔪 Spyderco my favourite make. Never had a problem with any there delivery or merchandise wen u get a spyderco u will be hooked. This is the first not like . As others say. It Efficient that the clip is a wire one not as described for 70bucks ill leave it at that.

Es realmente bonito, funcional, tamaño perfecto.

J’ai reçu ce modèle alors que sur la photo du site l’attache est bien plus solide. J’aimerai recevoir celui avec la bonne description…
