Spyderco Rescue 79mm FRN Black (C45SBK)

Reasons Spyderco offers smaller knives are numerous but essentially people's hands come in different sizes and we occasionally find ourselves in situations that dictate use of a smaller blade. Many think smaller versions of the same model are simply shrunk down. Not so. For every design to reach its utmost level of ergonomic comfort and maximum performance we often take features and engineer/rework them into a more diminutive pattern. An example is the 79mm version of the Spyderco Rescue Model. A smaller equivalent of the C14 93mm Rescue, it too has a flat saber-ground, SpyderEdge, VG-10 blade that ends in a sheepfoot safety tip. For smoother thumb rotation we enlarged the Spyderco Trademark Round Hole, which in turn creates a prominent hump to position the thumb on while cutting. The black FRN waffle textured handle has an ambidextrous, tip-up pocket clip.
