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.

    This knife may seem small but its surprisingly decently sized and UK legal if your like me and bought the UK legal spyderco 3" you will know it doesn't seem legal as its quite a wide blade shape. The Grasshopper is a quality knife and if your looking for a UK legal knife that you can have in your pocket and doesn't look or feel offensive this is a great knife to own and with Free P&P from heinnie you have a bargain.

    Posted by tim on 22nd Jul 2010

    this little spyderco is the best keyring knife i have ever owned it comes razor sharp straight out of the box,you do get some markings on the handle over time but i think this just adds to its appeal,for the money you really won't be dissapointed

    The perfect Every day knife

    Posted by Jon Lopez on 9th Jun 2010

    I've used mine every day since I bought it several months ago- it only needed a lick with a bladetech sharpener after spending an hour trimming cableties. Razor sharp, solidly built combining a useful blade length in an 'office friendly' package. Much less 'intimidating' to the non-knife users than a Delica or even a UKPK With practice you can even use the rather tiny Spyderhole for one handed opening. Brilliant.

    Thank you HH

    Simply outstanding, solid construction and sharper than my San Mai III blades. A Spyderco for this price is a steal! Every man and woman should have one!

    Posted by chris on 25th May 2010

    Very nice knife for the money, very sharp out of the box, will wait and see how the blade holds up to some abuse, cuts through paracord with ease!!
