General Spyderco | Meerkat® Drop Point

We Categorize The User Friendly Meerkat As One Of Our “Little Big Guy Knives”. To Qualify For That Distinction You Need Be A Small Folder That Cuts And Feels Like A Larger Folder. The Meerkat Accomplishes This By Having A 1-5/8 Inch Blade And Small But Ergonomically Adept Handle.

Set Inside The Handle Is A Phantom Lock™ That Has No Visible Unlocking Mechanism. To Unlock: Settle Your Thumb On The Divot Located On The End Of The Folder (Over The Bug). Push Forward, Moving The Handle Scale Downward/Forward A Couple Millimeters Releasing The Blade, Easily Done With One-Hand. Along The Underside Of The Handle A Succession Of Angles Form Placement Points For The Hand And Channel Ergonomic Grip Into Control Over The Cutting Edge. Steel Liners Inside The Frn Boost The Lock’S Strength And A Double As A Plate For Securing Screws Attaching The Tip-Down Tension-Wire Clip. Shaped In A Modified Leaf Pattern, The Blade Is Hollow-Ground Aus-6 With A Spine Cusp For Thumb Traction.
