Discover discreet functionality and cutting-edge performance with the Spyderco Metropolitan Lightweight C213PBK, a sophisticated addition to Spyderco's popular SLIPIT™ series of non-locking folders. This Italian-made knife perfectly balances the convenience of clip carry and one-handed opening with a design that is legally and socially friendly in many regions.
At the heart of the Metropolitan is a 2.68-inch (68mm) full-flat-ground leaf-shaped blade crafted from Böhler-Uddeholm's M398 powdered metallurgy stainless steel. This advanced steel is renowned for its exceptional hardness and extreme edge retention, ensuring the blade stays sharp through countless tasks. The satin finish adds a touch of classic elegance.
The handle is constructed from lightweight yet durable black fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN). The injection-molded scales are textured for a secure and comfortable grip, even in challenging conditions. The Metropolitan's design includes a textured index-finger choil, providing an extra margin of safety and enhanced control during use.
As a SLIPIT™ model, the C213PBK features a non-locking, notched-joint mechanism that provides a firm "half-stop" and a confident feel while still allowing the blade to close without a traditional lock. This makes it an excellent choice for everyday carry in environments where locking knives are restricted.
Equipped with Spyderco's signature Trademark Round Hole for swift and ambidextrous one-handed opening, the Metropolitan is designed for quick and reliable deployment. A deep-pocket wire clip, easily configurable for left or right-side tip-up carry, ensures discreet and secure placement in your pocket.
With an overall length of 6.31 inches (160mm) and a featherlight weight of just 1.6 ounces (45g), the Spyderco Metropolitan Lightweight C213PBK is a testament to minimalist design, superior materials, and practical functionality. It's the ideal everyday carry companion for those who value performance, compliance, and an understated aesthetic.
