Spyderco Efficient Value Knife - PlainEdge - C216GP

Spyderco was founded in 1976 by Sal and Gail Glesser. Initially, the company focused on selling their first product — the Tri-Angle Sharpmaker— primarily at fairs and trade shows around the country in their Bread Truck. In 1981, the Glessers put down roots in Golden, Colorado and introduced the first Spyderco folding knife. That knife pioneered the concept of a round hole in the blade for one-handed opening, a clip on the handle for carrying at the top of the pocket, and the option of a serrated edge for aggressive cutting performance. Those features revolutionized the knife industry and literally defined the form of the modern folding knife.

Designed from the ground up as a member of Spyderco's popular family of affordably priced full-service folding knives, the Efficient proudly includes all the high-performance features and benefits that savvy knife users have come to expect from Spyderco knives in a format that suits practically every budget. The heart of the Efficient's compact, ergonomic design is its full-flat-ground drop-point blade. Precision machined from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, its broad profile and PlainEdge cutting edge offer outstanding edge geometry for low-friction cutting performance.

Built on a framework of full, skeletonized stainless steel liners and a stout stainless steel back spacer, the Efficient's handle construction provides serious structural strength. To keep the Efficient poised and ready for action, it includes a reversible hourglass clip that can be configured for left or right-side tip-up carry and a lined lanyard hole for easy attachment of fobs and lanyards.

Spyderco is a business that provides state-of-the-art innovation and product quality while maintaining traditional values and service. Their Value Folder knives are perfect for novice knife buyers and as gifts for those you might want to "convert" into knife enthusiasts. The Efficient's black G-10 laminate handle is ergonomically milled with prolonged fatigue-free cutting in mind. Its blade shape, oversized Spyderco Round Hole, and textured spine jimping allow for easy one-handed opening and confident, slip-proof positioning of the thumb on the spine, ready for work.

Overall, the Efficient is a compact, high-performance folding knife that offers Spyderco quality and innovation at an accessible price point. Its combination of features, materials, and design make it an excellent choice for everyday carry and a wide variety of cutting tasks.
