Description

The Spyderco Grasshopper is one of the best selling UK-friendly carry knives that we sell here at Heinnie Haynes®.

Non-locking folding knives aren’t a new concept. They’ve been around for centuries without much change but continue selling among a sea of modern locking knives. The reason? While many knife buyers appreciate the traditional aspects of a non- locker, more want this type of knife because they live or work where laws prohibit carrying and using a locking pocket knife. Spyderco perceived a gap between traditional slipjoints and modern locking folders and created a product line called SLIPITS. SLIPITS offer reliable and sophisticated non-locking folders that open with one hand, have a finger choil for comfort and safety and are conveniently accessible.

As the overall SLIPIT line expands, a subcategory of micro-sized SLIPITS with stainless steel handles is populating within and Spyderco calls them Bugs. The first Bug was matter-of-factly named, The Bug. Its non-locking blade is just barely over an inch long. Next up, a two-inch blade called the HoneyBee followed by the release of a larger one yet, The GrassHopper.

The GrassHopper’s size is closest to that of a true penknife with its blade over two-inches. Its PlainEdge 8Cr13mov stainless steel blade stays open when you’re cutting, held by resistant pressure at the knife’s pivot area. GrassHopper handles are chamfered with no squared-off edges to dig or bite into a gripping hand. The handle is also stainless steel with a laser engraved Spyderco bug and enough blank area for a small amount of engraving or customization as jewelry or a gift item. Handle lanyard-hole welcomes a chain for wear around a neck or a keychain.

    Great Little Knife forthe money!!

    Posted by TacticooGear on 15th Feb 2011

    Just purchased my first Spyderco knife as an edc and it's better quality than I thought. The lock is very strong, which can make opening a 2 handed affair, but it keeps it open quite securely. For the price I'd recommend you buy one. :)

    Very pleased

    Posted by Thomas Madhavan on 30th Dec 2010

    After losing my Case peanut (fool!) I wanted a slightly cheaper replacement that was UK legal to carry. I came across this knife, and can't be happier. It was dispatched on the same day, and delivered promptly (considering Christmas congestion...) It's small but won't get lost; has a sharp edge upon opening; and can just about be opened one handed (I'm not the most dextrous...) Great value, looks good, works well. What more can I say? I will be buying from here again!

    very nice

    Posted by goodbloke on 14th Dec 2010

    What a lovely little folder, got one for dad as a christmas present and am pleased that although its a Chinese jobby its high quality. Good solid spring and no rough edges, all in all usual spyder quality. Same goes for honeybee.

    GOOD FOR THE MONEY

    Posted by BLAKE on 14th Dec 2010

    Small, sharpe, perfect EDC and easy on the wallet. CHINA stamp on the blade is a little off putting. As long as it doesn't rust like my bug pretty good though impossible for me to open one handed.

    why dont you have one yet?

    Posted by chad on 11th Dec 2010

    At this price, then you'd be nuts not to own one of these. Great as an EDC knife on your keychain or a great gift. solid, sharp, shiny, UK legal etc. was the 1st knife i owned since i was a kid. I'm very happy with it and may get one for my good friend or brother for x-mas.

    awesome little uk legal knife.

    Posted by Unknown on 20th Nov 2010

    Fantastic little blade, comes arm hair shaving sharp straight from the nice foam lined box, would make a perfect gift especially at this price. The blade is suprisingly big and excellent for cutting, the backspring is stiff and you can get a good grip for such a small knife, only problem is its hard to open one handed.

    brilliant wee knife

    Posted by scott on 7th Nov 2010

    Absolute amazing value for money, been using it when l go fishing and for light tasks around the house and such. Precisely what a small knife like this should be used for, brilliantly sharp out of the box. I would be more than happy with this at double the price.
