Description
Designed by acclaimed French custom knifemaker and martial artist Fred Perrin, Spyderco's Street Beat Lightweight is a long-overdue fusion of his time-tested Street Beat design and the state-of-the-art manufacturing efficiencies. The result is a remarkably lightweight, extremely concealable expression of the classic Street Beat design featuring an injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle. True to the original, it includes Perrin's distinctive index-finger groove that literally locks the user's hand to the handle when gripped firmly. The handle is molded directly onto the tang of the VG10 stainless steel blade, which is full-flat ground to ensure an outstanding balance of edge geometry, cutting performance, and point strength. Optimized for use in tactical environments, the PlainEdge blade is cloaked in a low-profile black ceramic coating that eliminates its reflective signature. To ensure ease of carry and instant access, the Street Beat Lightweight comes equipped with an injection-molded polymer sheath and a reversible, angle-adjustable G-Clip attachment. The G-Clip can be attached to either side of the sheath and configured to support dozens of different carry positions, including inside-the-waistband carry and vertical, horizontal, or canted carry on the belt. Compact, lightweight, versatile, and extremely affordable, the Street Beat Lightweight does it all.
