Spyderco Ikuchi C242CFP – 3.26″ CPM‑S30V Satin Blade, Carbon Fiber/G‑10 Handle, Compression Lock

 Description

The Spyderco Ikuchi is a bold, ultra‑slim folding knife designed by engineer‑enthusiast Paul Alexander. With a sleek, open‑back handle that fully encloses its blade when closed, the Ikuchi blends minimalist form with high‑performance function. Its blade, crafted from premium CPM S30V steel with a satin finish and full‑flat grind, offers refined edge geometry and a razor‑sharp scalpel‑like point ideal for precision cutting. The handle pairs carbon fiber/G‑10 laminate scales with skeletonized stainless steel liners, resulting in a lightweight yet robust structure. The knife features a smooth flipper or tang‑open mechanism, and locks securely with Spyderco’s renowned Compression Lock. A reversible deep‑carry wire pocket clip enables discreet left or right, tip‑up carry. Whether you’re into high‑end EDC gear or simply appreciate fine craftsmanship, the Ikuchi stands out as a refined, capable folder that carries lightly but delivers seriously.
