Spyderco byte January 2025 - Edge-U-Cation®- What is a Spyderco Lightweight? In a recent thread on the Spyderco Internet Forum, one of our members asked, “What makes a lightweight knife?” The real answer to that question is multi-faceted and deeply reflective of Spyderco’s role in the development of knives with injection-molded handles. As such, it’s also a great theme for this month’s Edge-U-Cation feature. First, let’s cut to the chase and offer the “simple” answer: A lightweight knife, in Spyderco’s use of the term, is a folding knife that includes injection-molded components as a substantial structural part of its handle construction. When this term is specifically used in the knife’s product name, it is done to differentiate it...

Spyderco byte December 2024 - Edge-U-Cation® CPM® 15V® Sprint Run™ Knives Edge-U-Cation® - CPM® 15V® Sprint Run™ Knives Crucible® Industries' CPM® 15V® powder metallurgy tool steel is a remarkable material that offers the highest wear resistance of any cold-work tool steel available today. Its unique alloy composition includes almost 15 percent vanadium, which creates an exceptionally high volume of vanadium carbides in its microstructure. This makes it a viable alternative to solid carbide in the production of intricate tool designs; however, that does not automatically make it a workable knife steel. CPM 15V was commercially released in 1994 and has been in constant use since then in a wide range of demanding industrial...

HELLE NORWAY - Knife Launch Nordlys FG- Lightweight Fulltang Flatgrind Nordlys FG The Nordlys Flatgrind (FG) is a very different sibling to the standard Nordlys. While the basic shape of the knife is the same, the FG version feels very different. Not only does it have a much thinner blade with a flat grind that means that it excels as a slicer rather than for heavier work, it is much more lightweight. In fact, the Nordlys FG measures in at 67 % the weight of the standard version, primarily because of the thinner stock and a skeletonized handle. Flat grinds on knives are popular because they provide a versatile balance of strength, sharpness, and ease of maintenance. In a flat grind, the blade tapers evenly from the spine to the...

Spyderco byte November 2024 - Designer Spotlight Marcin Slysz Like many knife enthusiasts, Marcin Slysz’ interest began with a simple pocketknife. After he learned to appreciate its usefulness as an everyday-carry tool, some of his friends introduced him to the world of custom knives. He was captivated by their craftsmanship and painstaking attention to detail but found that most of the custom knives he liked were well out of his price range. Undaunted, he decided to try making his own. Slysz’ first knife was a large, heavy fixed blade that he crafted by hand using only a file and lots of determination. Realizing that proper tools would make the process much easier, he gradually invested in a grinder, a milling machine, and a lathe...
