Spyderco C12GS Civilian CLIPIT 4.09″ Folding Serrated Satin VG-10 SS Blade/ Black Textured G10 Handle Includes Pocket Clip

Description

The Spyderco Civilian Clipit folding knife features a 4.09" VG-10 stainless blade, clip point, serrated edge, textured G-10 handle, black finish.

The blade is VG-10 SS, a Japanese high-carbon stainless that takes a very fine edge, holds it well, and resists corrosion – a long-standing favourite for folding knives. A serrated edge bites into rope, webbing and fibrous material far better than a plain edge, and stays aggressive long after a plain edge has dulled. G-10 is a fiberglass laminate: light, dimensionally stable, and grippy even wet.

This is a larger folder aimed at outdoor and work use, where reach and cutting power matter more than minimising pocket bulk.

Carry laws are set locally as well as by state, and a 4.09" blade is legal to carry in many places and not in others – check your state and city rules before you carry it. Knives ship directly to you with no FFL transfer and no background check, unlike a firearm. Keep the blade dry and the pivot clean, and touch the edge up on a strop or fine stone before it gets properly dull – it is far less work than bringing back a blunt edge.

The Civilian has a patented reverse "S" blade that's intended to be used like an oversized claw. The tip is ground to an ultra-thin profile. Deeply curved and full at the belly, the VG-10 ground blade excels in slicing and is available fully SpyderEdged. Because of its distinctly specialized features it is not intended or designed for general utility or everyday use. Curved in all the right places for ergonomic use and retention of the knife, the handle is black G-10. A two position clip supports discreet tip-up or tip down carry on the right side. One of the most specialized CLIPITS in the Spyderco line-up, the Civilian is available in limited quantities.
