Sage2 Titanium PlainEdge Knife
The first Sage knife recognized knifemaker Michael Walker's creation of the LinerLock, which offered a ball-bearing detent method of keeping a folding knife closed. The Sage2 focuses on prime mover Chris Reeve's embellishment of the original Walker LinerLock, which he morphed into the Reeve Integral Lock (RIL). The modification uses the handle scale as the lock's liner. With the back portion of the handle doubling as both handle spring and lock, the knife no longer needs an internal liner, meaning the knife can be manufactured lighter and slimmer without sacrificing strength.The Sage2 also includes a spear-point blade made of CPM-S30V steel, with a flat-ground edge that pays tribute to Spyderco's Caly3 and Native models in shape and function. The screw-constructed titanium handle is also sturdy, with interior phosphor bronze washers ensuring a smooth opening and closing. The Sage concludes with a silhouette wire pocket clip that adjusts for left- or right-hand carry.Spyderco donates approximately five percent of sales of each Sage to the National Alzheimer's Association Denver, Colorado chapter.SpecificationsBlade: CPM-S30V steelHandle material: TitaniumBlade length: 3 inchesCutting edge: 2-5/8 inchesBlade thickness: 1/8 inchHole diameter: 1/2 inchClosed length: 4-3/16 inchesOverall length: 7-1/8 inchesWeight: 3.5 ounces
