Sal Glesser-designed folding knife with 3.66" CPM-S30V satin blade, black G-10 handle, and reversible pocket clip. Built for reliability and strength.
Named after the legendary bucking bull famous for its indomitable spirit, the Spyderco Bodacious lives up to its namesake. Designed by Spyderco co-founder and Blade Magazine Hall of Fame member Sal Glesser, this is a hell-for-stout folding knife engineered for unfailing reliability in the field or at the workbench.
The Bodacious features a broad, leaf-shaped blade full-flat ground from CPM-S30V stainless steel. This premium steel offers excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening—qualities that matter when you need your knife to perform day after day. The satin finish provides a professional appearance while resisting fingerprints and showing wear gracefully.
The handle is built on a framework of skeletonized stainless steel liners nested within smooth black G-10 scales. This construction provides exceptional structural strength while keeping weight reasonable. The liners form the foundation of the knife's high-strength Compression Lock mechanism—one of the most reliable locking systems in modern knife design.
The Bodacious is a knife that doesn't make excuses. It's built to work.
