Spyderco Endura 4 Lightweight Folding Knife

In 1990, the original Endura took the knife world by storm as one of the first lightweight, clip-carry folders. More than 30 years later, it has earned iconic status and still sets the standard for all other knives of its breed. The Endura’s popularity has also spawned a wide range of variations of the basic model, ranging from classic stainless-steel-handled versions to a broad range of lightweight models featuring skeletonized stainless steel liners and injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handles. The current fourth-generation Endura 4 family offers a full spectrum of blade shapes, grinds, edge configurations, blade steels, coatings, and handle colors. All Endura 4s feature a high-strength back lock mechanism and a four-position pocket clip that make their carry and operation completely ambidextrous. For environments where light discipline is a concern, the saber-ground combo edge blade of this Endura 4 Lightweight has a non-reflective titanium carbonitride (TiCN) coating. Its lock bar, pocket clip, and other handle hardware also have black coatings.
