SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Spyderco Endura 4 Stainless stands as a benchmark in folding knife design, combining elegant durability with proven performance. For those who want their everyday carry knife to feel substantial yet refined, this all-stainless steel version of the iconic Endura is the perfect fit—tough enough for hard work, sleek enough to turn heads.
At the core of this knife is a 3.82-inch VG-10 stainless steel blade, ground to a razor-sharp plain edge. VG-10 has long been a favorite among knife enthusiasts for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening. The clip point shape delivers exceptional cutting versatility, whether you're slicing rope, prepping food, or handling daily utility tasks. With its satin finish, the blade doesn’t just perform well—it looks sharp too.
Opening the Endura 4 is an effortless motion, thanks to Spyderco’s signature round thumb hole. Designed for one-handed deployment, it’s a fast, intuitive way to get to work without fumbling. Once open, the blade locks into place with a reliable backlock mechanism, offering solid security and that signature audible snap you’ll come to trust.
What really sets this version apart is the handle. Constructed from stainless steel, it adds a satisfying heft and a premium feel. At 5.4 ounces, this knife has presence. The handle's clean lines and brushed finish give it a refined, modern aesthetic while offering plenty of surface area for a secure grip. It’s smooth, yes—but not slippery. The ergonomics are spot-on, offering comfort and control whether you're using it lightly or for heavier-duty jobs.
Another key feature is the fully ambidextrous design. The four-position pocket clip allows for tip-up or tip-down carry, on either side, so lefties and righties can both enjoy the knife their way. A lanyard hole gives you extra carry options and quick retrieval, while the 4.92-inch closed length makes it easy to pocket or pack.
When open, the Endura 4 measures 8.67 inches overall, giving you plenty of cutting edge and leverage. The .11-inch blade thickness strikes a nice balance between slicing efficiency and durability. Despite its longer blade and solid steel build, it still carries comfortably, making it a practical option for everyday use.
This is the kind of knife that looks just as at home in a suit pocket as it does in a toolbox. It’s a refined tool, but it’s not delicate—this thing is built to be used. Whether you’re a longtime Spyderco fan or just discovering what quality cutlery can really feel like, the Endura 4 Stainless delivers.
