The Spyderco Police PlainEdge (brand part no. C07P) is a 4.13-inch stainless steel folding knife built on one of the most iconic designs Spyderco has ever produced. Originally created in the early 1980s to meet the demands of law enforcement professionals, the Police model has evolved through several generations while keeping its timeless profile and modern screw-together construction. This PlainEdge version keeps a clean, continuous edge, giving shooters, hunters, and everyday carriers a full-size folder built for controlled, precise cutting rather than sawing through rope.
