Introducing the Gen-3 C158TIP3 Spyderco Techno 3. This Techno is a larger version of the Techno 2 powerhouse, designed by Polish custom knifemaker Marcin Slysz, that features a 2.64-inch beefy sheepsfoot blade made of CTS XHP stainless steel, .127-inch thick, with a high flat grind, a swedged tip, the Spyderco Trademark Round Hole, and a front flipper for ambidextrous one hand opening. The matte titanium handle, 3.70-inches closed, has faceted chamfers, the sturdy R.I.L. Reeve Integral Lock, and a titanium pocket clip mounted for right-hand tip-up carry. The Spyderco Techno 3 Knife has an overall open length of 6.32-inches, and it weighs 3.3 ounces. Made in Italy.
From Spyderco's Website: Based on Polish custom knifemaker Marcin Slysz’ incredibly popular “Mouse 3” folder, the third-generation expression of the Techno continues the evolution of this compact, workhorse design. In addition to its refined lines, it adds a flipper opener, ball bearing pivot washers, a steel interface/overtravel stop on the Reeve Integral Lock (R.I.L.) mechanism, and a meticulously machined titanium pocket clip. The Techno 3’s blade is crafted from CTS® XHP stainless steel and features a high flat grind, a satin finish, and a stylish swedge to provide both low-friction cutting performance and excellent point utility. Its handle scales are precision machined from solid titanium and include faceted chamfers that also enhance the knife’s ergonomics. Configured for right-side, tip-up carry, the Techno 3 faithfully translates Marcin Slysz’ custom design into an elegantly practical cutting tool.
