Description
SpydercoåÕs popular SLIPITåª knives are non-locking folders that combine the advantages of one-hand opening and clip carry with the legal permissibility of a non-locking mechanism. Originally released in 2009 and later discontinued, the Urbanåª Lightweight exemplifies all the best qualities of the SLIPIT concept and combines them with the weight-saving advantages of an injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle. Its blade is machined from premium B̦hler-Uddeholm N690Co steelåÑa high-performance stainless steel alloyed with cobalt, molybdenum, and vanadium. Its full-flat grind and leaf-shaped profile provide an exceptional balance of strength, low-friction cutting performance, and point utility. A prominent index-finger choil (finger groove) helps prevent unintentional blade closure, while SpydercoåÕs Trademark Round Holeåª ensures positive one-handed opening with either hand. The Urban LightweightåÕs textured FRN handle scales are anchored to the handleåÕs solid steel back spacer, which provides structural strength and serves as the spring for the knifeåÕs notched-joint non-locking pivot mechanism. The handle also features a reversible deep-pocket wire clip that allows left or right-side tip-up carry and keeps the knife tucked low in the pocket for a discreet, socially friendly image.
