Endela FRN Black Plain, a knife that blurs the distinction between the iconic Endura and Delica folders. It offers all the refined and proven features of each, while positioning itself in the perfect "in-between" size.

The head - with a Clip Point profile provides excellent cutting edge geometry with low friction. Made of Japanese VG-10 stainless steel (easy to sharpen, holds sharpness well). Hardened to 59-61 HRC. Plain blade with Full Flat Grind. Satin Finish (semi-matte) coating eliminates glare. Ramped, fluted section of the back of the blade positions the thumb and gives solid support for easy handling of the folder. Round SpyderHole cut-out (Spyderco patent) for opening the blade with one hand. Back-Lock with protection against accidental release of the lock during strong grip of the knife, cut-out in the lock designed by David Boye.
Handle - black. The non-slip Bi-Directional Texturing and the notched Spine Jimping on the back of the handle reinforce the grip even with wet hands. Made of FRN (Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon), a glass fibre reinforced nylon. Metal hourglass clip with 4-way clip positions (up/down, right/left). The lanyard hole allows the attachment of a safety cord.
Skeleton - two steel plates with cut-out holes to which liners are attached. This ensures high strength and stiffness with low weight of the knife. Reinforced, fully demountable structure connected by torx screws. Phosphor bronze washers make it easier to open and close the pocket knife.

This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
