So Close yet So far away
Nylon washers, Jerky opening. Could have been great. I recommend Ka-Bar Dozier Mini same length blade fraction of the cost. Smooth as butter.
Spyderco Cat Folding Knife 2.44" CTS-BD1 Satin Plain Blade, Black G10 Handles - C129GP
Part #: SP129GP | Spyderco Knives
Description
SP129GP: C129GP Cat G10
Spyderco
Why do knife companies apply animal-like names and descriptions to their knives? In Spyderco's defense, the Spyderco Round Hole and super sharp edge are reminiscent of eyes and claws.
Think cats. Cats represent a highly developed level of predatory resourcefulness, sleek sharp claws and efficiency. The C129GP Cat CLIPIT has a leaf-shaped CTS-BD1 blade just under two-and-a-half inches in length that is flat-ground for hair popping sharpness.
The cat is unique. Spyderco aimed for a high pinnacle of cutting adeptness but demanded it be polished and sophisticated in appearance. So, they combined cat-claw sharpness with a G10 handle and Michael Walker LinerLock. The black G10 handle is shaped and sized ergonomically with full-length skeletonized liners inside for strength without bulky weight.
A deep silhouette wire clip burrows the knife down deeply in a pant's pocket with the tip facing up ready to carry left- or right-handed.
Spyderco believes the name is appropriate and think you might too.

Pros: Handle Feel, Overall Quality, None
Cons: Blade Material
Great value
This is a first impression as I just got the Cat two days ago. But she hasn't left my pocket. Great little EDC value gem. I wouldn't have normally chosen BD1 as a blade steel. But as a budget steel, it is all one can ask for. Good ergo, reasonable materials, and vood price all add up to a great value. The Cat is not pocket candy, but she is a little beater that will feel good in the hand a d easy on the pocket book.

CAT
Mandarin mauling, tangerine orange peeling, apple carving CAT. Having tip of blade so close to your finger tips is great for precision fruit carving. Go anywhere legal blade length. Pivot screw came a bit tight. Backed it off to flick open.
