Spyderco UpTern, 2.82″ ComboEdge Blade, Steel Handle – C261PS
The Spyderco Uptern is a versatile and elegant folding knife that combines the convenience of a non-locking slip joint with the security of a lockback mechanism.
The blade is made of 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, a high-performance alloy that offers excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. The blade has a full-flat grind for optimal slicing performance and a partially serrated edge for enhanced cutting power on tough materials. The blade also features Spyderco’s signature Trademark Round Hole, which allows easy one-handed opening with either hand.
The handle of the Uptern is made of solid stainless steel, which gives the knife a sleek and sturdy feel. The handle has a textured forefinger choil and thumb ramp for a secure and comfortable grip. The handle also has a four-position pocket clip, which allows the user to carry the knife tip-up or tip-down, left or right-handed. The pocket clip is also removable for those who prefer a more discreet carry option.
The Uptern is equipped with a reliable lockback mechanism, which locks the blade securely in the open position. To close the knife, the user simply presses on the spine of the handle to release the lock and folds the blade back into the handle. The lock back mechanism also prevents accidental closure of the blade during use.
The Uptern is a great choice for anyone looking for a practical and stylish folding knife that can handle a variety of tasks. It is part of Spyderco’s Value Folder family, which offers high-quality knives at affordable prices.
