Spyderco C220GPGY Polestar S/E Folding Knife Gray – Satin
The Spyderco C220GPGY Polestar Folding Knife was designed for the budget conscious. It was inspired by the design of the best selling Byrd Raven 2, it is also a shining example of “reverse evolution” in the Spyderco product line.
The Polestar’s blade is crafted from American made CTS BD1N stainless steel and features a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole for quick, ambidextrous, one hand opening. Its full flat grind, plain edge cutting edge, and distal taper give it an exceptional combination of edge geometry, point utility, and low friction cutting performance. Unlike the Raven 2, its edge extends the full length of the blade and does not include an index finger choil. This maximizes the usable length of the cutting edge and allows powerful cuts with the heel of the blade.
It’s lightweight, ergonomic, open backed handle features full, skeletonized stainless steel liners that provide outstanding structural strength and form the foundation of a stout LinerLock mechanism. To ensure a secure, hand filling grip, the liners are capped with non-slip, textured Gray G-10 scales. A strategically placed relief cut in the obverse side scale allows easy release of the lock mechanism and makes one handed operation of the knife simple and intuitive. The handle also includes a four position hourglass clip with a broad, triangular base that offers a choice of tip up or tip down carry on either side of the body.
Boasting all the defining qualities of a Spyderco knife in a wallet friendly package, the Polestar sets a new standard in affordable high performance.
