Made by Lionsteel 

 The Spyopera is a collaboration between Spyderco and Lionsteel. The design goes back to a Lionsteel design that has been manufactured in Italy for some time under the name “Opera”. This very knife was then reworked again together with Spyderco and is now available in a Damascus Sprint Run version, where the blade is clearly the star of the show. 

 This Sprint Run takes the SpyOpera design to a whole new level and equips the pocket knife with a blade made of martensitic Damascus steel in the Thor pattern.

This exceptional material was developed by the Swedish company Damasteel and is produced in a patented powder metallurgical process in which layers of RWL 34 and PMC 27 are welded together to form a state-of-the-art Damascus stainless steel. After precision machining and flat grinding, the blade is acid etched to reveal the complex layering pattern. Almost as spectacular is the handle of this knife, with its solid carbon fibre scales carefully machined to create ergonomic and curved surfaces.

 All the other features of the Spyopera are the deep carry clip and Lionsteel’s signature rounded spine and backlock.
