Questions & Answers

Is there a chain included?

It does not, in fact. I went out and bought two. It was a perfect fit with the 4mm ball chain. Any number greater than two. 4 and, just so you know, it wouldn't have fit.

Will this elicit a response from mall scanners and airport security?

It will, in fact. The blade and frame are both made of steel.

Is the carbon fiber able to withstand a lot of moisture or sweat?

I use mine on a daily basis and it lasts a long time.

Is the knife black on one side and brown on the other, as shown in one of the photos?

Both sides of mine are black.

Blade in case of emergency
5/5

My first Spyderco Dog Tag folding knife was lost in the ocean after the ball chain snapped, and I liked it so much that I ordered another. PROS: br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>
- light and airy; After a few days of wearing it or even running for several miles, I don't even notice it hanging around my neck.
- Small: It's the same length and width as a standard dog tag (hence the name), but it's thicker to accommodate the blade and folding mechanism. br> Sharp: As it should be for a blade. Because it's too small to be used every day, the edge should last a long time with light use. br>br>CONs:
- Hole for Lanyard: Because there isn't enough material to make a large hole, it's on the small side. If you're going to use it as a dog tag, I recommend using a high-quality ball chain with a quick-release mechanism like this:  .

Cute and sassy all at the same time
5/5

Spyderco has long been one of my favorite brands. My first knife had pink FRN handles, and it was a Cricket. Spyderco is still, in my opinion, one of the best knife companies, even though that was at least 25 years ago. Their collaboration with Serge Panchenko, a knife artist, is spectacular. This little gem is razor-sharp, compact, and, dare I say, - sassy. Adorable! I've been wearing it on a black ball chain around my neck. However, I could easily see someone attaching it to a keychain or simply keeping it in their jeans watch pocket. Buying this little beauty was a no-brainer for me as a knife lover. Love it!.

This is something I really enjoy! Because of its light weight, it can actually be worn as a dog tag! There are other Spyderco Dog Tag knives, but due to the carbon fiber body and handle on this model, weight is not an issue
5/5

issue. I was just using it as a fidget toy, but it's very sharp, like a razer's edge, as I discovered the hard way. Using a knife as a fidget toy is never a good idea. Even so, it's simple to use and control. In fact, I'm considering purchasing a backup in case the first one fails. br>br>Alright, so I went out and bought another. It's extremely useful and, thanks to its light weight, can be stored out of the way when not in use. I'm saving the second one in case my first one is misplaced, stolen, or damaged beyond repair, or if it is discontinued. I gave it a try just to make sure it worked, and it did. Also, I called Spyderco and inquired about sharpening; I've heard that a lot of people can't get that sharp edge back, and that it takes a lot of trial and error with sharpening methods and angles, as some methods work great with certain metal types (S30V, BD1N, VG-1) and others don't (S30V, BD1N, VG-1). 10, ZDP- Others will be subpar (e. g. , 189, S110V, etc. ). Anyway, they said they offer free sharpening if you pay S H, which is something I'd opt for to ensure it gets the same edge it came with.

This blade is cunning
5/5

I bought this for a friend's birthday because he is a Spyderco fanatic and I wanted to get him a unique blade that was not too expensive. I was 100% satisfied with this purchase because when I gave him the knife his eyes lit up with joy as he had never seen the model before and didn not know it% It was ideal to be able to surprise him and present him with a high-quality blade.

Perhaps a more suitable keychain
3/5

It's a cool product with a great concept. It's a little heavy on my neck, and it's noticeable because it tangles up with my dog tags. I wish it was thinner and lighter, or that it came with a bottle opener. That may compensate for the small size. br>*Decently sharpbr>*Does the job.

This is an excellent coin pocket knife, which I keep in my coin pocket at all times
5/5

When you need to cut rope, paper, string, boxes, plastics, or other small items, this tool comes in handy. Because of the short handle, it's not suitable for deep or powerful cuts, but it's ideal as a day-to-day tool. the blade of the day The design, company, and knife quality are all fantastic.

Worth it
5/5

This is an amazing knife! I use it all the time, except when I go to bed because the chain keeps choking me out: P Razor sharp blade and very sturdy construction; I'm not going to carve a majestic wooden unicorn out of it, but it's perfect for everyday use!.
