- Game Changer: This elite expression of the Ambitious Lightweight supercharges its performance with Crucible CPM S35VN blade steel.
- The New EDC: The Ambitious Lightweight is also perfectly suited for everyday pocket knife utility use. It can be used for hiking, hunting, camping, or everyday carry.
- Dependable: The finely tuned chemistry of this American-made particle metallurgy steel promotes the formation of niobium carbides along with vanadium and chromium carbides, enhancing its toughness without sacrificing wear resistance.
- Pocket-Friendly: It features a Versatile four-position pocket clip that provides a choice of left or right-side, tip-up or tip-down carry.
The smallest member of Spyderco’s popular Value Folder series, the Ambitious is an ultra-compact cutting tool that cuts with big-knife authority. In its lightweight configuration, it trades the G-10 scales of the original for injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) with a high-traction Bi-Directional Texture™ pattern. Taking that evolution one step further, the Ambitious Lightweight Black Blade cloaks the knife’s full-flat-ground 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade in a non-reflective black oxide coating. Consistent with that theme, the handle’s full skeletonized stainless steel liners, four-position pocket clip, and other hardware also sport stealthy black coatings. Available in a choice of either PlainEdge or fully serrated SpyderEdge, both configurations feature a sturdy LinerLock mechanism to lock the blade securely open during use.
