Sage™ 6 Button Compression Lock®

Spyderco’s Sage™ Series is a remarkable family of cutting tools created to showcase various folding knife lock mechanisms and the influential designers who invented or popularized them. The sixth member of this series highlights the Button-Release Compression Lock® mechanism pioneered by custom knifemaker Kevin Smock. A novel variation of Spyderco’s high-strength Compression Lock design, it adds a convenient button release to the obverse-side scale. This feature makes releasing the lock much easier and transforms the Sage 6 into one of Spyderco’s most “fidget friendly” folders. Its satin-finished blade is full-flat ground from CPM® S30V® stainless steel and paired with an easy-to-clean, open-backed handle featuring nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners and peel-ply-textured carbon fiber/G-10 laminate scales. To keep the knife poised for quick access, it also includes a deep-pocket wire clip that is reversible for left or right-side tip-up carry.

Spyderco will donate approximately 5% of sales of the Sage line to the National Alzheimer's Association Denver, Colorado Chapter. The Alzheimer's Association is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer's care, support, and research. Their mission is to eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research, to provide and enhance care and support for all affected, and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health. Contributions to the Alzheimer's Association provide care and support to families in Colorado coping with Alzheimer's disease, as well as fund national programs and research to ultimately find a cure.
