Description
The Spyderco Tenacious Lightweight distills the long-running C122 Tenacious design into a carry-friendly folder built around tough, injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) scales. Compared to the original G-10-handled Tenacious, the Lightweight version trims carry weight noticeably without sacrificing the cutting geometry that has made this model a fixture of the Spyderco lineup.
At the core of this C122PSBK configuration is a 3.39″ satin-finished drop-point blade ground from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel with a full-flat grind for low-friction slicing. The edge carries Spyderco’s signature CombinationEdge profile, marrying a plain cutting section with a partially serrated segment for cleanly tackling rope, webbing, cardboard, and packaging alike. A round thumb hole at the blade allows fast one-handed opening.
The handle is built around black FRN scales molded with Spyderco’s high-traction Bi-Directional texturing pattern for positive grip in any orientation. A sturdy liner lock secures the blade when open. The knife measures 4.38″ closed and 7.77″ overall when open, weighing just 3.70 oz. An ambidextrous four-position pocket clip is included for tip-up or tip-down carry on either side.
