Spyderco Endela Lightweight CPM SPY27: Lightweight Powerhouse with Premium Steel
The Spyderco Endela Lightweight CPM SPY27 is designed for those who need a reliable, lightweight, and versatile pocket knife for everyday use without compromising on performance. As a mid-size model, the Endela is the perfect bridge between the compact Delica and the larger Endura. This SPY27 version combines premium steel, an optimized design, and a striking cobalt blue finish.
This pocket knife has a total length of 20.50 cm, a blade length of 8.60 cm, and weighs only 87 grams.
- Blade steel CPM SPY27: The blade is made of CPM SPY27, a premium powder steel developed by Spyderco and Crucible Industries. This steel offers an exceptional balance between edge retention, toughness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance (59 RC hardness).
- Blade shape: The classic drop-point shape with a full-flat grind. This ensures an exceptionally efficient cut with little resistance, ideal for precision work and longer cutting tasks.
- Back Lock: The Endela uses a traditional but extremely reliable back-lock mechanism. The lock is solid, consistent, and features the so-called “Boye Dent” to minimize accidental closing.
- FRN Lightweight Handle: The handle is made of FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), which is lightweight and remarkably strong. Spyderco's Bi-Directional Texture provides an exceptionally good grip, even with wet or cold hands.
- Carrying options: Equipped with a four-position pocket clip, allowing the knife to be carried on the left or right, tip-up or tip-down (fully ambidextrous). The slim construction and low weight ensure discreet and comfortable everyday carry.
The biggest advantage of the Endela Lightweight is the perfect balance between size and weight (87 grams), combined with the superior performance of CPM SPY27 steel. SPY27 steel is a high-end upgrade that delivers the best performance while maintaining ease of sharpening. The Bi-Directional Texture on the FRN handle guarantees a secure grip in any situation. The Back Lock mechanism is reliable and robust.
The knife opens effortlessly with one hand via the Spyderco Round Hole. The Back Lock locks securely when opened. To close, unlock the Back Lock and fold the blade in. The four-position clip can be adjusted for the desired carrying style (left/right, tip-up/down).
This knife is ideal for EDC users who prefer a medium-sized knife, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a lightweight, durable knife with a premium, low-maintenance steel grade (CPM SPY27).
The Spyderco Endela Lightweight CPM SPY27 is a reflection of innovation and user-friendliness. The knife combines the power of the Shaman line with the advanced performance of SPY27 powder steel and the reliable Back Lock. It is an excellent choice for those looking for a high-quality, lightweight, and accessible EDC.
