As with all the knife reviews I'll do, skip to the bottom for the bottom line... Utility: It's non-locking. Let me re-emphasize: it's non-locking. However, it has a fairly robust backspring meaning for ~95% of your daily chores, the lack of lock will not make a bit of difference, assuming you know how to use a knife safely. This is at least the 2nd generation of this knife, and the backspring has been beefed up, but don't treat this as you would a locking blade and realize that certain tasks, like cutting thick cardboard, where the blade may get stuck making you pull to and fro, could be more dangerous. However, more EDC-type chores like package opening, cutting apples, even light whittling, have absolutely no issues. Handle Design: Grippy and made of FRN (Fiber-Reinforced-Nylon), it's a screwed construction with a partial flow through design and the contours add to its ergonomics. The handle sports a nice choil just shy of the actual cutting edge of the blade. The utility of a choil on a slipjoint is not to be underestimated; it allows for more control in cutting and better security in keeping the knife open. It lends itself very well to a saber grip. No hot spots that I've noticed, the clip does not get in the way, and FRN is quite durable. It has a torx bit adjusted pivot. There is NO lanyard hole. Blade Design: A well designed, satin finished, ~3", full flat ground, drop point blade with a ~2.6" cutting edge (get used to somewhat muted cutting-edge/total-edge ratios with Spyderco). Full flat grind makes it a very nice slicer. Gimping is deep and in abundance on the top and bottom of the blade choil, again adding to security in keeping your hand from moving while gripping the knife. Steel: The blade rocks CTS-BD1 carpenter steel (NOT Gin-1 as listed on desertcart. As far as I know, Spyderco hasn't used that for several years). Not the equivalent of VG10 in edge-holding quality, but it's no slouch and takes a razor sharp edge with good corrosion resistance. Rust has not been a problem, though the blade can almost seem to take on a very faint patina at times...It's washes off, but it's actually quite odd (and purely aesthetic). Clip: It's a stainless steel, though not particularly shiny, wire clip that's fairly deep carry. Something like .25-.5" of the knife stick out of the pocket. Retention is good, and you can notice Spyderco's attention to detail as they put their logo, which is relatively smooth, under the end of the pocket clip reducing friction and making extraction from your pocket easier. Weight: ~2oz. Extremely light, given its size, but still feels good in-hand. Fit and Finish; No side-to-side blade play.Decent walk and talk. Knife is basically flush at the back. Came quite sharp and centered. No real complaints. Deployment: Spyderco's famous Spyder Hole. It has a very smooth opening, though do note that there is a half stop. After a bit of practice, slipjoint or not, one-handed opening/closing is fairly easy. You can also do the "Spyder drop" if you're so inclined. Misc: The "UK" portion of the knife was chosen to denote the fact that this knife is legal in the UK, which, relative to most of the states, has strict knife laws. Thus is the reason this knife sports a half stop, no lock, and sub-3" blade. The upshot of this is that it is legal most anywhere in the US and is a fairly non-threatening knife (relative to something like an Emerson or Zero Tolerance). Value (TL:DR) At ~$40 you won't find many other knives that fill the niche this knife does. For what it is, a legal everywhere, clipped, non-locking, lightweight, ~2.5" Spyderco with decent stainless steel, it's a worthy buy. Review: Well made - This is the knife I carry the most, because it is so easy to use. I like that the detents for holding the blade are fairly strong, because the blade does not lock on this model. I did not detect any flaws in the blade grind and it was very sharp out of the box. When closed the blade was nicely centered in the handle. ## Features - Folding Knives: Locking folding knives are safe, compact, and easy to carry. They also happen to be where the Spyderco revolution began. - FRN Handle: Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon is a polymer mixed with glass fiber then injection molded into formed and textured lightweight high-strength knife handles. - Full-Flat Grind: This knife features a blade ground with flat bevels that extend from the spine all the way to the cutting edge. This grind reduces drag during cutting and decreases overall weight. - PlainEdge Blade: This knife has a sharpened blade with no serrations or teeth sometimes referred to as a smooth blade. - Specifications: Closed Length (Inches): 3.95, Overall Length (Inches): 6.95, Blade Length (Inches):3, Blade Steel: CTS BD1, Grind: Full-Flat ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004YLAHU4 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #840,917 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #3,758 in Pocket Knives & Folding Knives | | Blade Edge | Straight | | Blade Length | 3 Inches | | Blade Material | Stainless Steel | | Blade Shape | Drop Point | | Brand Name | Spyderco | | Color | Black | | Customer Package Type | FFP | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (142) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00716104008421 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Handle Material | Nylon | | Included Components | UK Pen Knife Black | | Is Product Cordless | No | | Item Length | 6.95 Inches | | Item Type Name | fixed blade,hunting knife,outdoor,camping | | Item Weight | 50 Grams | | Manufacturer | Spyderco | | Model Name | SC94PBK3 | | Model Number | SC94PBK3-BRK | | Power Source | Manual | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | Camping | | Reusability | Reusable | | Special Features | Foldable, Lightweight, Reversible | | Style | Drop-Point | | UPC | 716104008421 611267427532 097914369743 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Manufacturer Warranty | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Blade Material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** Spyderco - **Color:** Black - **Handle Material:** Nylon - **Included Components:** UK Pen Knife Black - **Model Name:** SC94PBK3 - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Camping - **Special Feature:** Foldable, Lightweight, Reversible - **Style:** Drop-Point ## Images ![UK Penkife - Drop Point - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Ed8gqznLL.jpg) ![UK Penkife - Drop Point - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-GAxteLaL.jpg) ![UK Penkife - Drop Point - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Kud2CNE4L.jpg) ![UK Penkife - Drop Point - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/614BLoeRDQL.jpg) ![UK Penkife - Drop Point - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61OHARcoa1L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Looking for a modern slippy? *by M***B on October 7, 2014* Can't believe this knife doesn't have more reviews.

I like that the detents for holding the blade are fairly strong, because the blade does not lock on this model. I did not detect any flaws in the blade grind and it was very sharp out of the box. When closed the blade was nicely centered in the handle. ### ⭐ Not CPM S110V. Knife is BTS BD1 a much less expensive steel. *by X***X on December 4, 2020* I ordered this knife expecting to receive S110V and got CTS BD1, by comparison a cheap steel. I then noticed that the description shows S110V in bold but also show CTS BD1 in fine print. I am returning the knife.
