The Spyderco Urban Sprint Run is a pocketknife that has “all the advantages of clip carry and one-hand opening, but with a socially friendly, non-locking mechanism.” But why? Depending on where you live, there may be restrictions for what knives you are allowed to carry. Some places actually restrict locking blades.

This Urban features a satin finish AEB-L stainless steel blade with thumb ramp jimping and Spyderco’s trademark Round Hole. They’ve given this limited edition sprint run coyote brown FRN handle scales with an ambidextrous tip-up wire pocket clip. It’s remarkably lightweight and gives you all of the cutting performance you expect from a Spyderco, just in a smaller package with a non-locking blade.
