SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Spyderco Persistence Lightweight is a streamlined, high-value folder built for reliable performance without the bulk. An upgrade to Spyderco's original Persistence, this model swaps out the G-10 scales for injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN), shedding nearly 10 percent of its weight. The FRN handle scales incorporate Spyderco’s Bi-Directional Texture, adding a superior, non-slip grip even in wet or challenging conditions, making this knife ideal for tasks where stability is a priority.
At the heart of the Persistence Lightweight is an 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade, known for its ease of sharpening and solid edge retention, shaped into a versatile, utilitarian design that handles daily tasks with ease. The blade opens smoothly via Spyderco’s trademark round hole, ensuring reliable, one-handed deployment. Full stainless steel liners add structural integrity to the knife without compromising weight, while the LinerLock mechanism secures the blade firmly in place during use.
Built for versatility, the Persistence Lightweight includes a four-position pocket clip, allowing you to carry it tip-up or tip-down on either side to match your carry style. At a closed length of 4.12 inches and weighing only 3.3 ounces, this folder is highly portable, capable, and ready to work when you are.
