Spyderco Metropolitan Lightweight Slipjoint M398 C213PBK

ASPC213PBK

Spyderco’s extremely popular SLIPIT models combine the convenience of clip carry and one-handed opening with the social and legal friendliness of a non-locking blade. The newest member of this proud family is the Metropolitan. Sized to fit perfectly between our pioneering UK Penknife and the compact Urban, it proudly offers the same qualities, including a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole for easy one-handed opening by both left- and right-handed users, a clip for convenient top-of-pocket carry, and a non-locking notched-joint mechanism. Its full-flat-ground leaf-shaped blade is crafted from Böhler-Uddeholm M398—an advanced powder stainless steel capable of achieving exceptional hardness and edge retention. The blade includes a textured index-finger choil as an added margin of safety and is paired with a lightweight handle built with injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) scales. To balance discreet carry and easy access, the textured handles are equipped with a deep-carry wire clip that is easily configurable for left- or right-side tip-up carry.
