Based on a utilitarian folding knife conceived by Italian designer Massimo Salice Sanna (aka “MAX”) and produced by lionSTEEL, the Spyderco SpyOpera takes the original design to the next level by adding a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole and a pocket clip. Its full-flat- ground blade is crafted from M390 particle metallurgy stainless steel and supported by a sturdy back lock mechanism. The blade is housed in a handle made with skeletonized full titanium liners, beautifully con- toured brown canvas Micarta scales, and a stainless steel backspacer. The spines of the blade, lock bar, and backspacer are all meticulously crowned, and a reversible deep-pocket wire clip provides a choice of left or right-side, tip-up carry.
