Spyderco Techno 3 Folding Knife - 2.64" CTS-XHP Satin Plain Blade Chamfered Titanium Handle

The Techno 3's blade is crafted from CTS XHP—a premium American-made stainless steel that combines the corrosion resistance of 440C and the edge retention and toughness of D2. It is also produced using Carpenter’s Micro-Melt powder metallurgy process, which ensures an extremely fine microstructure and uniform distribution of the elements throughout the steel. Taking full advantage of these properties, the Techno 3's blade features a high flat grind and a stylish swedge (unsharpened bevel) that provide low-friction cutting performance, excellent point utility, and unmistakable style.

The knife's handle features precision-machined solid titanium scales joined by a titanium backspacer. The reverse-side scale serves as the foundation of its high-strength R.I.L. mechanism, which includes a stainless steel interface. This premium feature creates steel-to-steel contact between the lock bar and the ramp on the blade’s tang, ensuring a solid lock-up, a smooth action, and a long service life. It also does double duty as an overtravel stop to prevent weakening of the lock bar’s spring tension with repeated use.

Unlike the flat scales of its predecessors, the Techno 3’s intricately machined, matte-finished scales include faceted chamfers that enhance the knife’s ergonomics and give it exceptional style. To ensure ease of carry and instant access, the Techno 3 showcases a beautifully machined titanium pocket clip configured for right-side, tip-up carry. The clip is also attached with internal screws to accentuate the knife’s sleek, high-tech styling.
