Spyderco ARK fixed blade knife

Description

The ARK - abbreviation for "Always Ready Knife" - is a small but highly capable and versatile knife. The design is a collaboration between John Shirley and Sam Owens. Incredibly compact, yet with outstanding handling, the ARK is highly capable even for tougher jobs. The blade of the ARK is made from nitrogen-alloyed H1 steel and is essentially 100% corrosion-resistant. The fiberglass-reinforced handle is directly molded onto the tang, and provides secure and comfortable handling under any weather conditions with the bi-directional checkering. Designed as a neck knife, it is carried in the polymer sheath around the neck with a ball chain. Extremely slim and lightweight, the ARK is barely noticeable until needed.

Spyderco

The first pocket knife from Spyderco has been manufactured in 1981, even back then they used the so called “Spyderhole”, a round hole in the blade. With the help of the hole, the knives can be opened very easily and fast by only using the thumb of the leading hand. During the years Spyderco has become one of the world leading brands and is now worldwide the supplier of different emergency forces from the police and military. Countless innovations, perfect workmanship and using the best materials guarantee top drawer products.
