Spyderco Assist Folding Knife Orange 3.68in Serrated Satin Sheepsfoot SPC79PSOR

The Spyderco Assist is more than a knife—it’s a specialized rescue tool built for those who operate under pressure and need absolute dependability. Whether you’re a first responder, an emergency worker, or simply someone who values preparedness, this knife brings together intelligent design, high-performance materials, and real-world functionality in one compact, purpose-driven package.

The Assist features a 3.68-inch sheepsfoot blade made from premium VG-10 stainless steel, delivering outstanding edge retention and corrosion resistance. The fully serrated edge makes it ideal for slicing through tough, fibrous materials like seatbelts, rope, and clothing. Its sheepsfoot profile eliminates the sharp point, allowing for controlled cuts near flesh without the risk of puncturing. The satin finish on the blade adds a clean, low-reflective look while resisting wear from the rigors of field use.

Opening the blade is quick and easy thanks to Spyderco’s signature round thumb hole, designed for smooth, one-handed operation—even when wearing gloves. The dependable backlock mechanism keeps the blade securely in place, providing the confidence and stability needed in critical moments. It’s a mechanism trusted by professionals worldwide and a staple of Spyderco’s proven reliability.

The high-visibility orange FRN handle is lightweight, durable, and engineered for a secure grip in any condition. Whether your hands are wet, cold, or gloved, the ergonomic design and textured surface ensure maximum control. But what truly sets the Assist apart is its built-in rescue innovation. With the blade closed, a firm squeeze on the spine drives the blade deeper into the handle, triggering a concealed carbide glass breaker at the base. This ingenious feature lets you shatter windows without opening the knife, saving time when it matters most.

Measuring 4.87 inches closed and 8.42 inches overall, with a slim .11-inch blade thickness, the Assist is compact enough to carry every day but tough enough to tackle real emergencies. Weighing just 4.1 ounces, it strikes the perfect balance between lightweight comfort and serious performance. The ambidextrous tip-up pocket clip ensures easy access for both left- and right-handed users, making it as versatile as it is capable.

Offered by the world’s largest knife store, Smoky Mountain Knife Works, and available through the best online knife store, this Spyderco Assist rescue knife stands out for its combination of smart design and mission-ready features. Whether it’s clipped to your gear, carried in a duty bag, or kept on hand for emergencies, this knife is made to perform when seconds count. It’s a trusted tool from a trusted brand—built not just to meet expectations, but to exceed them when it matters most.
