Carpenter® Technology’s Micro-Melt® Maxamet® is an extraordinary tool steel that was specially formulated to roll red-hot steel billets in Carpenter’s steel mills. Spyderco is the only knife company to have mastered this demanding material well enough to feature it prominently in our production knives. This elite expression of the Sage™ 5 Lightweight showcases this incredibly hard, ultra-tough steel in its full-flat-ground, satin finished, PlainEdge™ blade. All other features are consistent with the standard version of this model, including nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners, a high-strength Compression Lock®, injection-molded FRN scales, and a reversible deep-pocket wire pocket clip.
