Spyderco Opus Folding Knife, Liner Lock, 3.45″ – C218G

The Spyderco Opus is a combination of everything that makes the brand great, along with the unique style of its designer, noted German knifemaker Ulrich Hennicke. Instantly recognizable as a Spyderco, the Opus still manages to be something more.

The 3.75″ blade opens easily thanks to Spyderco’s signature ambidextrous opening hole. Constructed of S30V steel it promises impressive edge retention, and the full flat grind ensures low friction cutting performance. Thanks to the integrated finger choil that extends usable handle length, another common Spyderco design element, and a swooping curve for the thumb, the user can choke up on the blade for fine control.

The handle offers plenty of grip thanks to textured G10. Open-backed construction makes it easier to keep the knife clean and grants plenty of strength to the skeletonized full stainless steel liners. The locking liner does its part to keep the blade secure when in use and enable one-handed closing of the blade.

To ensure the knife is ready when you want it, the Opus is fitted with a four-position hourglass clip enabling all carry positions. A steel lanyard tube offers even more attachment opportunities for accessories.
