Blade - thickness 2.5 mm with a Leaf Shaped profile (leaf shape) provides excellent cutting edge geometry at low friction. The blade is made of corrosion-resistant, well-sharpening American CTS BD1 stainless steel. This phenomenal steel is manufactured in the USA by the Carpenter steel mill. Smooth blade (Plain type) was made with a full flat cut (Full Flat Grind) that extends over the entire length of the blade, enabling powerful cuts with the heel of the blade. The SpyderHole round cutout (Spyderco patent) has increased the hump of support for the ramp, which places the thumb directly above the hole, making it easier to open the blade quickly with cold or wet hands. Ribbed supports:ramp under the thumb (spine jimping) and (finger choil jimping), undercutting the index finger between the handle and the cutting edge make it easier to control the knife.

Frame - made of solid, skeletal stainless steel plates - provides exceptional strength of the construction, while at the same time creating the basis of the blade blockade mechanism: Liner-Lock type by Michael Walker. The whole has been screwed with torx screws to facilitate the folding and folding of the folder.

Handle - profiled in black color. Made of light textured cladding made of durable G-10, resistant to high and low temperatures, plastic chemicals. The cut in one of the cladding allows intuitive access with the right hand to the SpyderHole and to release the blockade of the blade: Liner-Lock type by Michael Walker. The folder is equipped with screwed clip (left / right) made of wire allowing to carry the knife in the tip-up position. In the back of the covers was placed a gap (lanyard hole) enabling fixing the safety rope.
