Spyderco Insistent Pin Folding Knife

The Spyderco Insistent is a smaller version of the famous Spyderco Efficient. The Insistent is enhanced with a 6.2 cm blade. A little shorter than the Efficient, which has a 7.6 cm blade. Because of its size the Insistent is perfect in areas where you cannot carry a large knife. The friendly-looking design reinforces this. No one will be surprised when you take the Insistent from your pocket to open a box or letter.

The Spyderco Insistent C246GP pocket knife is a nice EDC knife in the colour black. With its blade length of 6.2 cm, it’s a compact pocket knife that effortlessly fits inside your pocket. You can also notice this in the weight of 110 g. You’ll barely notice you’re carrying it with you!

You can easily open the Spyderco Insistent C246GP pocket knife with one hand using the thumb hole. Once opened, the sturdy liner lock ensures that the knife is locked and won’t accidentally snap shut during use.

Blade made of 8Cr13MoV steel

The blade is made of 8Cr13MoV. Quite the name, we agree, but what you need to know is the following: 8Cr13MoV is easy to sharpen to a razor-sharp edge. Its sharpness retention is okay, and it’s pretty corrosion resistant. It is a popular budget steel because it performs well for its relatively low price.

The blade of this knife is enhanced with a ‘satin finish’. This is a chic and tasteful finish that is very popular.

G10 handle

The Spyderco Insistent C246GP pocket knife features a handle made from G10 and measures 9.4 cm in length. G10 is a composite material made of glass fibre and synthetic resin. With its subtle texture, G10 feels great in hand and offers plenty of grip. Moreover, it is incredibly strong, so it can take a beating.

Spyderco: great pioneer in the world of knives

Spyderco is one of the world’s leading knife companies. Many innovations were made by this brand, think of the pocket clip, the thumb hole, a large range of locking mechanisms, but also steel types. It’s safe to say the knife world would have looked very different indeed without Spyderco.

Spyderco was founded in 1976 by Sal and Gail Glesser. Interestingly, they didn’t start out selling knives. The first product Sal and Gail sold was a soldering tool, which they sold travelling around markets. Then came a sharpening system, causing Sal to start experimenting with pocket knives. In his quest for a knife that was easier to open with one hand, he came up with the idea for a round thumb hole while experimenting. A stroke of pure genius.

Today, the next generation is at the helm of Spyderco. Eric Glesser, the son of Sal and Gail, works hard every day to further establish Spyderco as a leading knife brand.
