Spyderco Harpy Stainless Steel SpyderEdge Knife (C08S)

Harpy Stainless Steel, one of the most popular knives offered on the market with a Hawkbill head. The rounded shape of the blade is extremely effective, mimicking the way an eagle's talons tear - piercing and cutting.

The shape of the blade allows control of the object to be cut, keeping it on the curved sharpened edge, preventing the object from slipping off the end of the blade. The first knife to integrate the dynamics of the Hawkbill blade profile with the extraordinary cutting power of the serrated SpyderEdge blade.

Blade - made of Japanese VG-10 stainless tool steel (high resistance to abrasion and mechanical damage), characterised by good sharpness retention. Blade hardened in the range of 59-61 HRC. Hollow grind allows effective cutting with serrated cutting surface and ultra thin tip. Round SpyderHole (Spyderco patent) for quick thumb opening of the knife. Back-Lock with additional protection against accidental release of the lock during strong grip of the knife (notch in the lock) designed by David Boye.

Handle - covered with chamfered, satin stainless steel facings. The profiled cover provides a comfortable, secure grip even with wet hands. A hollow seat in one of the liners serves as a spanner to loosen / tighten the shackle and allows air circulation to dry a wet blade faster. Robust hourglass clip with 4-way clip positions in four planes (up/down, right/left). In the back of the handle a hole (lanyard hole) for the line.

Spyder Edge - (Spyderco patent) serrated blade usually has a few millimetres of smooth blade on the tip side. The Spyder blade consists of alternating one large and two small teeth, the so-called two-step. This pattern increases the length of the cutting edge by up to 24% compared to a straight blade. Ideal for cutting hard materials, plastics and fibrous materials. It proves its worth in, among other things, rescue sailing, diving.
