Spyderco Viele Phoenix Sprint Run Ball Bearing Lock Knife Red G 10 3 Satin

The C114 Phoenix has Howard Viele stamped all over it with a pinch of Spyderco thrown in. His folder features Spydercos Ball Bearing Lock¢. The ball bearing used in the lock sits on two springs that push it forward above the blades tang and locking the blade open. High-tech yet simple, the round bearing rotates, rolling in its housing never wearing at exactly the same spot. It self adjusts as the knife is repeatedly opened and closed, minimizing wear and tear. Phoenix fits the look with a curvy titanium handle thats jacketed with a red G-10 halfway up, covering from the lock to the handles edge. Two deep finger choils and ricasso flow from handle to blade.
