Spyderco’s popular Sage Series is a distinctive family of folding knives that uses a single design theme to showcase influential lock designs and honor their inventors. Highlighting our own Compression Lock®mechanism, the Sage 5 is so popular we decided to take it a step further by offering it in a lightweight format.
Its injection-molded FRN scales have a Bi-Directional Texture™ pattern for a non-slip grip and are home to nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners, a reversible deep-pocket wire clip, and a full-flat-ground CPM® S30V® blade. Weighing 13 percent less than the standard Sage 5, the Lightweight version also sports a special bushing that ensures precise pivot tensioning and an ultra-smooth action.
