Spyderco- Global Cutlery & Knife Brand with Decades of Innovation

Spyderco was founded in 1976 in Golden, Colorado, beginning with a pocket-knife sharpener before expanding into folding knives and cutlery. In 1981, the company introduced its first folding knife, featuring a round thumb-hole for one-hand opening and a pocket clip—both influential innovations in modern knife design. Over the years, Spyderco has developed a wide range of folding knives, fixed blades, and sharpeners using diverse steels and materials. With manufacturing in the USA, Japan, Taiwan, Italy, and China, Spyderco is recognized worldwide for its innovation, quality standards, and functional designs used for everyday carry, outdoor tasks, and general utility.
