Why the Techno 2 Is a Standout Compact Folder
High-performance steel: CTS XHP blends exceptional edge retention with stainless corrosion resistance, delivering a keen, long-lasting working edge.
Sheepsfoot control: The straight cutting edge and dropped nose drive precision through cardboard, plastics, and detail cuts while keeping the tip predictable and strong.
Titanium toughness: Matte stonewashed titanium scales shrug off scratches, offer premium hand feel, and pair with a steel lockbar insert (model dependent) for consistent lockup.
True hard-use geometry: Broad blade stock with a high, efficient grind provides slicing authority without feeling bulky in pocket.
Ambidextrous deployment: The Round Hole™ opener and smooth pivot action make one-hand opening effortless, gloved or bare.
Deep, discreet carry: The wire clip sits low in the pocket and won’t print—ideal for office, shop, or travel.
Taichung fit & finish: Built in Taiwan to Spyderco’s elite standards, with crisp machining, alignment, and action.
