Spyderco, Inc. is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of high-performance folding knives, fixed blades, and sharpeners. Founded in 1976, we initially focused on innovative systems that sharpened all cutting tools, including knives with serrated blades. In 1981, we expanded our scope and literally redefined the form of the modern folding knife by incorporating one-handed opening via our iconic Trademark Round Hole™, convenient top-of-the-pocket carry with a pocket clip, and the aggressive cutting power of a serrated edge. As Spyderco grew, so did our list of industry-changing accomplishments. In the late 1980s, our iconic Police™ model set the standard in law enforcement cutting tools. In the 1990s, our Endura® and Delica® helped pioneer lightweight injection-molded knife handles. We were also the first to partner with noted custom knifemakers in our groundbreaking collaborative designs and established our U.S. factory in Golden, Colorado. Along the way, we earned scores of utility and design patents and many prestigious awards from the knife industry. Our product line now includes more than 200 folding, fixed-blade, and kitchen knives and a complete selection of sharpeners. Spyderco’s manufacturing network includes a factory at our U.S. headquarters in Golden, Colorado, as well as resources in Japan, Taiwan, Italy, and China, all of which maintain the same exacting attention to detail and commitment to excellence that made our first knives distinctively different. Our worldwide distribution includes dealers and distributors in more than 60 countries. We serve the needs of the military, law enforcement, and first responders through our Government Services Administration (GSA) contract. We also support active uniformed personnel and military veterans through our OpFocus® professional purchase program. Every Spyderco product is backed by a limited warranty and our relentless commitment to providing reliable high performance in all our products.
