Lightweight folding knife with 3" CPM SPY27 drop point blade, compression lock, and blue FRN handle. Weighs just 2.4 oz with full-flat-ground blade and bi-directional texture grip.
Spyderco's Sage 5 Lightweight represents thoughtful design for the discerning knife user. This folder strips away unnecessary weight without sacrificing capability or durability.
The 3-inch drop point blade is ground full-flat and crafted from CPM SPY27 stainless steel—Spyderco's proprietary steel developed in partnership with Crucible Industries. This advanced composition builds on the proven foundation of VG-10 stainless steel, enhanced with additional alloys and Crucible's particle metallurgy process. The result is a blade that holds an exceptional edge while remaining easy to maintain.
Injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) scales keep weight minimal while providing genuine traction. The bi-directional texture pattern ensures secure grip in wet or demanding conditions. Nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners add strength without bulk. The signature cobalt-blue finish is both distinctive and durable.
The Compression Lock mechanism is Spyderco's time-tested design—reliable, intuitive, and proven in the field. It engages smoothly and disengages with confidence.
A refined choice for those who understand that the best knife is the one you actually carry.
