Compact, concealable, and relentlessly capable—the Spyderco Street Beat (FB15PBBK) distills Fred Perrin’s field-proven Street Series into a lighter, sleeker package that carries all day without printing. Its 3.51-inch Bowie/clip-point blade in premium VG-10 wears a tough, low-signature Black DLC coating for added abrasion resistance and glare reduction. The hand-filling Black FRN handle features molded texture, a palm swell, and an integral double guard that lock your grip in wet, cold, or gloved conditions. Paired with a slim Boltaron® sheath and an ambidextrous G-Clip, the Street Beat rides IWB or OWB, vertical, canted, or horizontal (scout)—ready for real work from camp prep and utility tasks to low-profile professional carry.

Why the Street Beat (Black DLC) Belongs on Your Belt

• Purpose-built blade geometry: The Bowie/clip-point profile combines a fine, controllable tip with useful belly for slicing—perfect for cordage, food prep, and detailed utility.

• VG-10 + DLC durability: VG-10 stainless balances edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance; Black DLC adds surface hardness and a non-reflective finish that hides wear.

• Confidence-first ergonomics: Contoured FRN handle with molded traction, integral guard, and indexing points ensure a locked-in grip when conditions are slick or stressful.

• Carry your way: The compact Boltaron® sheath with G-Clip enables ambidextrous, multi-angle mounting to belts, MOLLE straps, packs, or waistbands for discreet, repeatable access.

• Lightweight, all-day comfort: The thin, skeletonized tang and FRN scales keep weight down without sacrificing control or strength.

Performance & Use Cases

• Everyday utility: Compact length and controllable point excel at package breakdown, zip-ties, rubber hose, and camp kitchen tasks.

• Duty & discreet carry: Low-glare DLC, slim sheath, and secure ergonomics make it a natural for plain-clothes or low-profile setups.

• Outdoors & backcountry: Stainless VG-10 plus DLC’s added protection stand up to sweat, rain, and coastal humidity.

Carry & Setup Tips

1. Select the orientation: Run vertical for fastest straight-line draws, canted for seated access, or horizontal (scout) for backpack hip belts.

2. Tune retention: Boltaron® provides firm friction—lightly polish or apply silicone at contact points if you prefer a smoother draw.

3. Edge strategy: Keep a slightly toothy finish (800–1200 grit or light strop) for aggressive slicing on fibrous media.

Care & Maintenance

• Edge upkeep: VG-10 refreshes quickly on ceramic/diamond stones; strop to deburr and refine.

• Coating care: Wipe DLC with a soft cloth after use; avoid harsh abrasives that can mar coatings.

• Sheath service: Rinse Boltaron® after sand/grit exposure; keep the mouth clear for safe, consistent re-sheathing.
