SLIP JOINTS offer reliable and
sophisticated non-
locking folders that open with one
hand, have a finger
choil for comfort and safety and
are conveniently
accessible. As the overall SLIP
JOINTS line expands, a
subcategory of micro-sized SLIP
JOINTS with stainless
steel handles is populating within
and Spyderco
calls them Bugs. The first Bug
was matter-of-factly
named, The Bug. Its non-locking
blade is just barely
over an inch long. Next up, a
two-inch blade called
the HoneyBee followed by the
release of a larger one
yet, The GrassHopper. Affable Bugs
draw comments
like how cute - a beneficial
perception in a knife-
cautious world but their size
trumps the reality that
they’re serious business when it
comes to cutting.
C133 Bug: Aerodynamically the
bumble bee
shouldn't be able to fly but
someone forgot to tell the
bee that. It defies both nature
and expectations that
something that small performs such
a grand
manuver. Like bumblebees,
Spyderco Bugs perform
unexpectedly. The smallest folder
in the trio, Bugs
are just 2-7/8 (73mm) long opened,
and closed
measure 1-5/8 (41mm). Blade length
is 1-5/16
(33mm)
and they weigh only .4oz (12g).
Blade Steel is 3Cr.
C137 HoneyBee: The second
folder in the micro-
SLIPJOINT fraternity and a small
step-up, size-wise,
from the Bug. Its tiny blade
reaches one-and-a-half
inches long yet is all business
when it comes to
cutting. Overall: 3-5/8 92mm.
Blade length: 1-5/8
41mm. Weight: .56oz 15g. Blade
Steel is 3Cr.
C138 Grasshopper: The
GrassHopper’s size is
closest to that of a true penknife
with its blade over
two-inches. Overall it’s 5-1/32
128mm. Blade length:
2-5/16 59mm inches. Weight: 1.4oz
39.5g. Blade
Steel is 3Cr.
All of the handles are chamfered
so there are no
squared-off edges digging or
biting into a gripping
hand.
The handles are stainless steel
with a laser engraved
Spyderco bug and enough blank area
for a small
amount of engraving or
customization as jewellery or a
gift item.
