Drivers Gerber Infinity 45 S' title='Drivers Gerber Infinity 45 S' />Spyderco Techno Folding Knife is Short, Wide, and Strong, Just Like a Tank. Yesterday, I asked Which Knife Do You Carry, to which there were many great responses. I was somewhat surprised to see that 2 readers mentioned the Spyderco Techno as their EDC everyday carry knife of choice. I perhaps shouldnt have been too surprised, as I too am quite fond of this compact but capable folding knife. The Spyderco Techno is, in Spydercos words, a little big knife. Although vague, this perfectly describes the knife. It might be small, but the Techno feels confidently strong. Advertisement. Spyderco Techno Specs at a Glance. Spyderco Techno C1. TIPDeployment.

There were a couple of notable aspects that contributed to my purchasing decision. First, its a Spyderco. The Techno wasnt my first Spyderco knife, and it wont be my last. It was actually the Techno that helped convince me to take a chance on the Spyderco Southard flipper knife, their first knife that opens via flipper mechanism, which is also priced at a premium. Second, the handle is made from titanium. I was itching to see what all the Ti hype was about. Type or paste a DOI name into the text box. Click Go.

Too often, smaller knives are lightweight and flimsy. I wanted something a little more solid. Finally, I wanted to see for myself how a 1. I had grown accustomed to using. Surely it would provide a better user experience, right I actually stumbled on the Spyderco Techno by accident when looking for a different knife I wanted to order, but its appeal was quick and strong. I hesitated for but a moment before placing the order. First Impressions. Although I have owned and used this knife for almost 3 years now, I remember my initial impressions, which are still as valid and true as ever. Im going to steal Spydercos words and say that I found the Techno to be a little big knife, because it really is. It feels small and large at the same time, possibly due to the blade design. But its not thick, and it doesnt feel thick, it just looks that way. Why Because the blade is huge. The back of the Technos blade measures about 0. Spydercos spec sheet puts it at 0. This is thicker than the blades of most if not all of the folding knives I have ever seen, let alone used. The blue handle spacer is visually striking, but doesnt steal the show. Its an elegant accent that definitely helps the Techno in the looks department. Without that large blue spacer, the Techno might look plain and ordinary. Not a fan of blueThere are a number of custom made backspacers available through 3rd party craftsman Google image link. Spyderco Techno Blade. The blade, although thick at the back, is flat ground all the way to edge. Its effective at a myriad of tasks, although its not the best knife for making long cuts in material, such as cardboard. Itll do it, but knives with thinner blades will do it neater. Yes, the blade is as stout as it looks. Speaking of looks the knife apparently has a progressive European appearance, according to Spyderco. The knife was designed by Polish knifemaker Marcin Slysz, which probably explain the European styling. Iggy Pop Discography Completa Download Google on this page. Maybe the Techno does have European styling, maybe it doesnt. Im not one that can tell a difference. But what I can tell you is that the knife has stylish curving along the back, and gently curved drop point profile that makes it an effective slicer. Its also tapered at the point, which makes it okay at piercing tasks, such as opening clamshell packaging. Spyderco went with a stonewashed finish for the blade, as well as for the handle scales, which adds to the overall visual appeal of the knife. Ergonomics. There are some smaller knives where you could grip the knife scales higher, but this isnt one of them. The most comfortable grip for me is to place my thumb on the grooved back of the blade, and forefinger right where the lock is. My pinky isnt left hanging, but it doesnt have a full grip of the handle. Ive actually never realized that in use, and only noticed it now that Im writing about the Technos ergonomics. Para Que Se Utiliza Microsoft Powerpoint Wikipedia En on this page. This isnt the most comfortable knife Ive ever used, but it fits my hand nicely. Sometimes the pocket clip digs into my palm, but the tiniest adjustment of my hand fixes that. This mainly happens when the Techno hasnt been in my EDC rotation for a while and my hand forgets which knife it is holding. Scroll back up and take another look at the nice jimping the grooves on the spine of the knife blade that Spyderco engineered into the Techno. It provides a nice place to rest your thumb and is grippy without being aggressive. Opening, Frame Lock, and Closing. Righties can open the knife with one hand, via the large Spydie hole. Although the pocket clip can be switched from one side to the other, lefties will probably need to use two hands to open the knife. The frame lock gets in the way of left opening, and is only easily operated one handed with your right hand. Sorry lefties, this is one knife youll have to use with your right hand. The knife locks up strongly and securely, via a Chris Reeve Integral Lock R. I. L., otherwise called a frame lock. With this design, a section of the left side handle scale springs inward when the knife is opened, blocking the blade from closing unintentionally. You can disengage the lock by applying pressure against the frame lock bar, holding it clear of the blade with your thumb, and then rotating the blade to its closed position. The Techno is easy to open one handed, and while you can close it with one hand as well, its easiest and safest to close with two hands. Pocket Clip. The pocket clip is a simple bent spring wire affair, and removable if you dont like it. Or you can move it to the opposite side of the knife, where it can be reattached using a single Torx screw. Its designed to allow for deep carry, meaning very little of the knife will poke above the edge of your pocket. At the rear of the knife there is also a small lanyard hole, which you could use with a paracord or leather pull. This makes it easier to fish the knife out of a pocket, pouch, or bag. Blade Steel. My Technos blade is made from Carpenter CTS XHP stainless steel. Some versions of the knife are made with Crucibles CPM S3. V stainless steel, another premium blade alloy. CTS XHP is a specialty knife and blade powdered metal alloy that Im not very familiar with, but its said to have high hardness and good corrosion resistance XHP spec sheet. Indeed, it does seem to have high hardness and great edge retention, as my Techno arrived sharp in the box and there hasnt been a need for me to sharpen it yet. I must have honed it once or twice, and might give it another quick honing one of these days. After looking at the S3. V PDF spec sheet, its clear that the Carpenter and Crucible alloys are competitively positioned. Their alloy compositions are slightly different, but after a bit of research, I dont think there will be much of a performance difference in real world applications. The pricing doesnt seem to be different either. Final Comments About the Technos Size. An error occurred while setting your user cookie. Please set your. browser to accept cookies to continue.
