Reasons Spyderco offer smaller knives are numerous but essentially people's hands come in different sizes and we occasionally find ourselves in social situations that dictate use of a smaller blade. Many think smaller versions of the same model are simply shrunk down. Not so. For every design to reach its utmost level of ergonomic comfort and maximum performance we often take features and engineer/rework them into a more diminutive pattern. An example is our 79mm version of the Rescue Model.
A smaller equivalent of the C14 93mm Rescue, it too has a flat saber-ground, SpyderEdge, VG-10 blade that ends in a sheepfoot safety tip. For smoother thumb rotation we enlarged the Spyderco Trademark Round Hole, which in turn creates a prominent hump to position the thumb on while cutting. The FRN waffle textured handle is available with an ambidextrous, tip-up pocket clip.

VG10 Stainless Steel
A time-tested stainless steel made in Japan by Takefu and one of the most popular choices for performance kitchen knives.
Lockback
The lockback system has been used for many decades. It can usually be found on the knife spine and it provides a strong lockup that will wear well.

Six tours in Afghanistan - have used it in (10) provinces - keep it for cutting everything in emergencies - in the field - and on base. Light and does not lose it's edge. Would recommend to medics and people that operate outside the wire.
