Roadie™

In early 2013, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced a plan to allow knives in the cabins of airplanes again. Although the plan was later withdrawn, Spyderco was ready for it with an innovative non-locking folder design called the Roadie™. In essence a highly evolved penknife, the Roadie’s full-flat-ground N690Co* sheepsfoot-style blade features a “Double Dent™” for fingernail-free two-handed opening. An improved notched-joint mechanism holds the blade open during use and is backed by a subtle index-finger choil to prevent accidental

closure. Contoured fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) scales and strategically placed jimping (grooves) on the choil and spine provide comfortable ergonomics that enable this knife to perform well beyond its size. Rapidly setting a new standard in modern pocketknives, the Roadie is available in a choice of black, blue, gray, orange, and red. 
 

* The blade steel for the Roadies is transitioning from N690Co to M398 as the stock of each color is depleted.
