Designed for budget conscious knife users who demand genuine Spyderco quality, the Polestar™ features a leaf-shaped PlainEdge™ blade crafted from American-made CTS® BD1N stainless steel. The full-flat ground blade is paired with an ergonomic, lightweight, open-backed handle built with full, skeletonized stainless steel liners and gray peel ply-textured G-10 scales. A LinerLock mechanism locks the blade securely open when in use yet is easily released thanks to a strategically placed relief cut in the handle. A four-position hourglass clip with a broad, triangular base ensures instant access and provides a choice of ambidextrous tip-up or tip-down carry.
