Matriarch® Brown FRN Sprint Run™
C12BN DISCONTINUED
Discontinued
$99.95 MSRP
The female leader of a herd of elephants is called a Matriarch. The Spyderco Matriarch came about in the 1990s after a South African distributor requested a lightweight folder similar to the Spyderco Civilian.
He wanted the attributes of the Civilian with its tremendous cutting effort but in a smaller size and thicker at the tip of the blade for general use. We made him the Matriarch which eventually was discontinued but is being revived for a limited time during the summer of 2010 as a Sprint Run.
The Matriarch handle in coco-brown features the Volcano Grip™ FRN handle to ensure solid grip performance while cutting.
Shaped like a backward "S" and full at the belly, the VG-10 blade is available with a SpyderEdge or PlainEdge. With the curving thick tip, both edge configurations are highly effective when cutting using just the tip or when using a full arm motion. A left/right hand clip affixes the folder to carry tip-up in a pocket.
The Matriarch is a highly refined and coveted design we believe will offer years of serviceable use.
