2013 Spyderco Endura Damascus Sprint


The Endura Damascus is the most elegant folder made by Spyderco knives.  This 2013 Sprint Run Endura features beautiful orange jigged-bone handle scales, anodized titanium bolsters and a PlainEdge Japanese VG-10 Damascus blade.  It is innovative and classy!
A state-of-the-art cobalt stainless steel, VG-10 takes a highly retentive cutting edge. The steel is produced through a process of stacking layers of erosive and non-erosive material over a VG-10 core center. The erosive layers are hard martensite stainless steel and the non-erosive layers are anti-corrosion nonferrous metal. These layers block carbon particles in the core from spreading to the outer layers. After layering the blade is forged to intentionally distort the layer-lines making a complicated, artistically beautiful pattern called Suminagashi. Suminagashi is the traditional Japanese art form of creating ripples of Chinese ink on the surface of water. This steel mimics the art form with interesting results on a knife blade. Once the layers are distorted, the blade is bathed in acid etching the pattern to vivid relief. The result is an elegant swirled pattern steel that is superbly functional and highly attractive.
The folder features titanium bolsters nicely complementing the orange-colored jigged-bone handle scales. Mid-positioned on the knife's spine is a back lock featuring a cut-away David Boye Dent for added safely and a piped lanyard easily accepts a thong or cord for secondary attachment.
A dressy option for every Endura lover, it performs and feels like an old favorite but looks more like a custom piece and is guaranteed to be noticed.

The C10JBOP is clipless and comes in a padded zipper pouch.
