voila un sprint run
un peu trop pointu a mon gout
Description
SP58GPFG: JD Smith - G-10 Handle
Spycerco®
This was a great knife years ago when it was released with a Micarta handle. The G10 is a more practical and lightweight material. We like the new, flat ground blade better than the hollow ground in the previous release.
J.D. Smith is a longstanding member of the Knifemakers’ Guild and an ABS Mastersmith. In the 90s he designed and made a tactical-style folder for his own personal use, crafted using advanced materials yet also managing to delight the eye. His design eventually developed into the Spyderco SP58 J.D. Smith CLIPIT and new for 2009, Spyderco is re-releasing a Sprint Run (limited in number) with a foliage green G-10 handle.
One unique feature of the design is the Spyderco Trademark Round Hole™ strategically positioned on the Flat Ground VG-10 blade so there is no pronounced hump. This gives the folder an aesthetic, streamlined shape starting from the blade’s tip to the end of the handle. Blade length is 3-13/16” (97mm) and comes only in a PlainEdge™ configuration. In keeping with J.D.’s style and preference for quality materials, the handle is foliage green G-10 and flares slightly where it joins to the handle creating a finger choil and guard. 4-way ambidextrous steel clip.
