A faithful rendition of Australian custom knifemaker Alistair Phillips' popular Redback design, the Spyderco Kapara offers an exceptional blend of style, function, and craftsmanship. This limited sprint run boasts the extreme edge retention of CPM REX 121 blade steel, a high vanadium, cobalt bearing tool steel from Crucible that bridges the gap between high alloy tool steels and carbide materials. Achievable only through powder metallurgy, its advanced alloy composition offers the greatest attainable hardness and wear resistance possible in a high speed steel.
The full flat ground satin finished blade takes full advantage of those properties to deliver unmatched sharpness and edge retention. It's supported by a sleek, ergonomic handle with full skeletonized stainless steel liners, a high strength Compression Lock, and contoured G-10 scales in the distinctive burnt orange color reserved for Spyderco's most elite tool steel blades.
A deep pocket wire clip is reversible for left or right side tip up carry, keeping this remarkable knife discreetly poised for immediate access. As a limited sprint run, it won't be around long.
