Founded by Sal and Gail Glesser in 1976, Spyderco didn’t really hit its stride until 1981. That’s the year the Golden, Colorado-based brand released its first folding knife, the C01 worker, highlighted by a round hole in the blade for one-handed opening, a pocket clip and a serrated edge option.
All of these features helped to revolutionize knife design and define the form of the modern folder, with the hole in particular becoming a trademark feature for the brand.
If you had your eyes on one of Spyderco’s modern offerings, now’s the time to pounce, as Blade HQ has put a bunch of excellent, recently discontinued models on sale, with some more than 50% off. And yes, every single one has a hole in the blade.
