Spyderco's ultra-lightweight Charisma LW weighs just 0.8 oz with a 2.98" CTS BD1N drop point blade, back lock, black FRN handle, and reversible pocket clip for discreet everyday carry.
Designed by Eric Glesser, the Charisma LW represents Spyderco's commitment to creating cutting tools that disappear into your pocket yet deliver when you need them most. At just 0.8 ounces, this knife redefines what lightweight carry means without sacrificing functionality or durability.
The 2.98" drop point blade is full-flat-ground from Carpenter Technology's CTS BD1N stainless steel—a nitrogen-enriched alloy engineered for the perfect balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The ultra-thin profile cuts efficiently while remaining easy to maintain in the field or at home.
A proven back lock secures the blade during use, while Spyderco's signature Boye Dent—a strategically placed relief cut in the lock release—prevents unintentional closure. This design has been refined over decades of real-world use.
The linerless handle is injection molded from tough, fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) and features:
The black finish provides a discreet, professional appearance suitable for any environment.
Proudly manufactured at Spyderco's headquarters in Golden, Colorado, the Charisma LW sets a new standard in sleek, easy-to-carry everyday cutting tools. This is a knife you'll actually keep with you every day.
