The Spyderco Essenza is a slim, elegant folding knife based on the CHNOPS design by Italian designer Riccardo Gobbato (Raven Knives Design). Its sleek black anodised aluminium handle is precision machined to sit comfortably in any hand, with a recessed stainless steel liner forming a sturdy LinerLock. The 81 mm flat-ground blade is Böhler N690Co, a cobalt-enriched stainless steel with good corrosion resistance and edge holding, finished in a satin finish with a rounded spine for comfort and a refined look. A fully accessible Trademark Round Hole allows quick one-handed opening with either hand, and a deep-pocket clip is reversible for discreet left- or right-side tip-up carry. It weighs about 94 g and is 103 mm closed. Made in Italy.
