Spyderco C07PS Police Model - Stainless Steel Handle
To say that the Spyderco Police Model is iconic would be an understatement at best. Before the Endura model was introduced, the Police model was "the" self-defense knife of choice for most everyone who took that concept seriously. It was first developed in the early 1980’s in response to requests from law enforcement officers who wanted a slim, easy-to-carry folder capable of serious cutting performance. As it filled a need for police, it also filled a need for the rest of us.
While they all were stainless steel in the beginning, early versions had squared-off handles. Due to customer feedback, Spyderco quickly began to chamfer the handle edges for maximum comfort during carry and use. The solid handle construction provides substantial heft and a perfect foundation for the sturdy back lock mechanism, which features a Boye Dent to prevent unintentional lock release during use. Its blade is hollow ground from VG-10 stainless steel blade has a dramatic swedge (unsharpened bevel) for acute point geometry. Available with a PlainEdge™, SpyderEdge™, or CombinationEdge™, the Police Model’s blade also includes their Trademark Round Hole™ for swift, reliable, one-handed opening. A four-position hourglass clip completes the package, supporting tip-up or tip-down carry on both sides of the body and making the carry, deployment, and operation of this remarkable knife completely ambidextrous.
