One of the most advanced Spydercos ever produced, and Southard’s first collaboration with the knifemaker, the Spyderco Southard Folder is a great example of dedication to high-quality craftsmanship and finesse. Featuring a DLC-coated CTS 204P hollow-ground blade, the folder has great slicing ability and maintains a low profile. The front of the handle combines a textured G-10 scale with a titanium liner, while the backside is made from solid titanium. This is also the first Spyderco knife to feature a built-in flipper. By pressing the flipper tab on the back of the closed blade, the blade fully opens and locks in place once finger pressure overcomes the retention of the detent. The deployed blade also offers jimping on the back for a better grip. With its stainless steel pocket clip, the Spyderco Southard Folder is made for right-handed, tip-up carry.
