Spyderco Byrd Meadowlark2 Black G-10 PlainEdge Knife

Description

The newest evolution of the Meadowlark is the Meadowlark2 with a G-10 handle.  It has a full-flat ground high performance 8Cr13MoV blade.  Shaped like a “comet” the hole in the blade symbolizes quality and careful manufacturing tolerances.  On the blade’s spine is a group of crosshatching called jimping.  Jimping enhances the thumb’s grip on top of the blade making cutting slip-resistant.  Available for the first time with a four-way clip that carries tip-up/tip down or left/right-handed, it attaches inside a pant’s pocket where it rides deep and confidently.  A finger choil enhances the ergonomic G-10 handle adding comfort and control.  Mid-positioned back lock has a David Boye cut away dent, a safety feature allowing the handle to be tightly gripped without unintentionally releasing the lock.The Meadowlark Lightweight has long been one of the bestselling knives in Spyderco s value-priced byrd line of cutlery, and this second generation model offers several design improvements over the original. Upgrades include a full flat-ground blade, proprietary Bi-Directional Textured finish for nonslip performance, and phosphor bronze pivot washers for exacting blade operation. Jimping along the spine and choil create a solid grip in your hand, and a four-position clip enables a variety of carrying positions.
