Spyderco Smock S30V Compression Lock Folding Knife

The Spyderco Smock sets a satin-finished blade in CPM S30V with a distinctive carbon fiber handle, a Compression Lock, made in Taiwan.

CPM S30V is a respected American-made powder steel, prized for a balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance that outperforms most standard stainless alloys, a combination that matters more on a knife carried daily than any single property on its own. Carbon fiber is a lightweight, high-strength material, prized for durability without the added bulk of denser handle materials, giving the Smock a distinctly premium feel in hand. Spyderco's own Compression Lock locks the blade with strength while keeping the release lever positioned safely away from the cutting edge for added protection.

Made completely in Taiwan overall, the Smock represents refined, lightweight construction throughout the whole piece. Worth choosing if what you want is a lightweight, premium folder shaped around solid steel. The Smock has developed a following among buyers who want a lightweight, distinctive everyday folder. Spyderco continues to refine the Smock line with new steels and material combinations over time. The flipper-free design keeps the Smock streamlined compared to some other competing premium folders currently on the market. Explore more Modern EDC Linerlocks.
