Whether you're a first responder, outdoor enthusiast, or simply someone who values preparedness, this knife delivers the cutting power and control needed for rescue and utility tasks.
At the core of the Rescue 79MM is a 3.11-inch VG-10 stainless steel sheepsfoot blade with a satin finish. VG-10 is known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, making it an ideal choice for demanding environments. The fully serrated edge excels at cutting through tough materials like rope, webbing, and fabric, ensuring quick and efficient performance when every second counts. The sheepsfoot blade shape enhances safety by eliminating a sharp tip, reducing the risk of accidental punctures in emergency situations.
Spyderco’s signature round thumb hole allows for quick and reliable one-handed deployment, even with gloves. The knife features a secure backlock mechanism, providing strong and dependable lockup during use. This classic locking system ensures the blade stays firmly in place, preventing accidental closure and enhancing safety when working in high-stress conditions.
Designed for high visibility and durability, the bright orange FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon) handle is lightweight yet incredibly tough. Its ergonomic design provides a secure and comfortable grip, even in wet or slippery conditions. The textured surface enhances control, ensuring precision and stability when making critical cuts. At just 2.3 ounces, the Rescue 79MM is light enough for all-day carry without adding unnecessary bulk.
A tip-up pocket clip allows for convenient and secure carry, keeping the knife easily accessible whenever needed. The compact 4.08-inch closed length ensures a discreet and comfortable fit in the pocket, while the 7.19-inch overall length provides a well-balanced feel in hand. With a .11-inch blade thickness, the Rescue 79MM maintains a sturdy yet nimble profile, making it a reliable tool for everyday tasks and emergency situations alike.
