Spyderco Techno 3 Folding Knife Titanium Gray CTS XHP

The Spyderco Techno 3 (brand part no. C158TIP3) is based on Polish custom knifemaker Marcin Slysz’s incredibly popular Mouse 3 folder, and this third-generation expression continues the evolution of a compact, genuinely capable workhorse design. It adds a flipper opener, ball bearing pivot washers, a steel interface and over-travel stop on its Reeve Integral Lock (R.I.L.) mechanism, and a meticulously machined titanium pocket clip. The blade is crafted from CTS XHP stainless steel with a high flat grind, a satin finish, and a stylish swedge that delivers both low-friction cutting performance and excellent point utility. Precision-machined solid titanium handle scales include faceted chamfers that enhance ergonomics.
