"Super-charge your EDC with Maxamet!" - Mr. Narwhal 
Industrial Steel, Everyday Carry
Originally developed for industrial steel-mill rollers, Maxamet is an ultra-hard powdered tool steel whose performance approaches that of cemented carbides. Spyderco is one of the very few manufacturers to have mastered the demanding machining and heat-treatment processes required to turn this material into a reliable knife blade. The result is a full-flat-ground PlainEdge™ blade offering exceptional wear resistance, razor-sharp cutting performance and outstanding point control. This formidable blade is paired with a lightweight grey FRN handle, moulded with Spyderco’s Bi-Directional Texture™ for a secure grip. A precision back lock, fully accessible Trademark Round Hole™ and four-position pocket clip complete a truly ambidextrous design, making this an elite EDC tool built for long-term, hard use.
