SP123PGY: C123PGY Maxamet Sage 5 Lightweight - Gray
Spyderco
Spyderco's popular Sage Series is a distinctive family of folding knives that uses a single design theme to showcase influential lock designs and honor their inventors. Highlighting their own patented Compression Lock, the Sage 5 is so popular they decided to take it a step further by offering it in a lightweight format. Its injection-molded FRN scales have a Bi-Directional Texture pattern for a non-slip grip and are home to nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners, and a reversible deep-pocket wire clip. This model features a satin-finished Maxamet tool steel blade with gray FRN handles. Weighing 13 percent less than the standard Sage 5, the Lightweight version also sports a special bushing that ensures precise pivot tensioning and an ultra-smooth action.

Love the Sage 5
So i am an avid Spyderco fan. I have carried some version of Spyderco knife for 15 years as my edc. I have to say that the Spyderco Sage 5 has become my favorite edc. I actually have two of them. This version which has the Maxamet steel and one with the CPM-M4 steel. I really like them both. This Maxamet steel is amazing on edge retention. I also enjoy sharpening knives but there isn't much need to sharpen this one. The sharpness last a long time. For an average user, they may not need to resharpen for years. When you resharpen, break out the diamond stones. Your mom and pop hardware stones aren't gonna cut it.
