The Spyderco Grasshopper G-10 Black (brand part no. C138GBKP) is a 2.3-inch micro-sized slip joint folding knife, the largest member of Spyderco’s Bug, HoneyBee, and Grasshopper family. Despite its compact scale, it’s a fully functional, impressively sharp cutting tool, and its Trademark Round Hole makes it far easier to open one-handed than a knife with a traditional nail nick. Now offered with peel-ply-textured G-10 scales in black instead of the traditional stainless handle, the Grasshopper is built for hunters, shooters, and everyday carriers who want a small, dependable non-locking blade with a bit more length than the Bug or HoneyBee.

• It’s made from Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel, razor-sharp and full-flat-ground.
• Opening is a non-locking slip joint, keeping the mechanism traditional and simple.
• A Trademark Round Hole in the blade allows quick one-handed opening.
