Spyderco Byrd Crossbill Stainless Steel BY07PS partially serrated pocket knife

The Spyderco Byrd Crossbill Stainless Steel BY07PS partially serrated is a unique pocket knife. Made from stainless steel, this is a classic Spyderco. The Byrd Crossbill gets its name from the hawk-beak-shaped blade, which grips the material and prevents slipping during cutting. This variant has a serrated blade for cutting tough materials.



The Spyderco Byrd Crossbill Stainless Steel BY07PS partially serrated pocket knife is a nice EDC pocket knife in the colour silver. With its blade length of 8.9 cm, this knife is ideal for easy carrying. When closed, it’s only 12.1 cm long, and it weighs 162 g.



Opening the Spyderco Byrd Crossbill Stainless Steel BY07PS partially serrated pocket knife with one hand is very easy thanks to the thumb hole. Once opened, the sturdy back lock ensures that the blade is locked and won’t accidentally close during use. The back-lock mechanism is one of the oldest yet strongest locking mechanisms. The combination of thumb hole and back lock makes this knife easy to use by both left-handed and right-handed people.



Blade made of 8Cr13MoV steel
The blade is made of 8Cr13MoV. Quite the name, we agree, but what you need to know is the following: 8Cr13MoV is easy to sharpen to a razor-sharp edge. Its sharpness retention is okay, and it’s pretty corrosion resistant. It is a popular budget steel because it performs well for its relatively low price.



The blade of this knife is enhanced with a ‘satin finish’. This is a chic and tasteful finish that is very popular.



Stainless steel handle
The handle of this Spyderco Byrd Crossbill Stainless Steel BY07PS partially serrated pocket knife is made from stainless steel. As the name suggests, it’s steel that doesn’t rust easily. However, it’s often not 100% rustproof, so it’s still wise to keep it clean and dry.



Spyderco: great pioneer in the world of knives
Spyderco is one of the world’s leading knife companies. Many innovations were made by this brand, think of the pocket clip, the thumb hole, a large range of locking mechanisms, but also steel types. It’s safe to say the knife world would have looked very different indeed without Spyderco.

Spyderco was founded in 1976 by Sal and Gail Glesser. Interestingly, they didn’t start out selling knives. The first product Sal and Gail sold was a soldering tool, which they sold travelling around markets. Then came a sharpening system, causing Sal to start experimenting with pocket knives. In his quest for a knife that was easier to open with one hand, he came up with the idea for a round thumb hole while experimenting. A stroke of pure genius.

Today, the next generation is at the helm of Spyderco. Eric Glesser, the son of Sal and Gail, works hard every day to further establish Spyderco as a leading knife brand.
