Product Description
A Bit About Spyderco
Spyderco was founded in 1976 by Sal and Gail Glesser. Initially, the company focused on selling our first product — the Tri-Angle Sharpmaker— primarily at fairs and trade shows around the country in their Bread Truck. In 1981, the Glessers put down roots in Golden, Colorado and introduced the first Spyderco folding knife. That knife pioneered the concept of a round hole in the blade for one-handed opening, a clip on the handle for carrying at the top of the pocket, and the option of a serrated edge for aggressive cutting performance. Those features revolutionized the knife industry and literally defined the form of the modern folding knife.
Yojimbo 2
High Performance Specialty Knife
Designed by noted personal-defense trainer Michael Janich, the Yojimbo 2 is an evolved expression of his original Spyderco Yojimbo design, which pioneered the application of the Wharncliffe blade in tactical folders. The refined ergonomics of the Yojimbo 2 complement the natural contours of the hand, ensuring maximum surface contact and positive control. They also encourage a thumb-forward grip and make the 3-1/4-inch CPM S30V blade a natural extension of the hand.
The PlainEdge straight cutting edge of the hollow-ground blade offers extreme cutting performance by transferring power all the way to the tip and ensures improved point strength. Nested stainless steel liners provide structural strength and form the backbone of the knife's high-strength Compression Lock mechanism.
Textured G-10 scales and a four-position clip provides a non-slip grip and rapid deployment from all carry positions.

The blade is incredibly sharp straight out of the box and has held its edge well even after regular use. The handle is ergonomically designed, providing a secure and comfortable grip. I've found that the knife is well-balanced and easy to maneuver, making it a great choice for tactical and everyday carry use.
My only minor concern is that even after being oiled, the knife doesn't open as easily as I've become accustomed to with other Spyderco products. However, this is a small issue that doesn't detract from the overall quality and performance of the knife.
Overall, I highly recommend the Spyderco Yojimbo 2 Tactical Knife to anyone in need of a reliable and high-quality knife. Its sleek design, sharp blade, and comfortable handle make it a top choice for both tactical and everyday use.
I have to say that, although I am not an expert on this, this has to be one of the best folding pocket knives ever designed. I read articles about it before and wanted it. When I received the knife, I found that the fit and finish were flawless, the blade as sharp as a razor, and the feel was that of a very solid and sturdy tool. The steel used is listed out there as one of the highest-rated stainless tool steels.
I had a minor "problem." The opening action was a bit stiff. I tried working the pivot a number of times, then tried a high-grade lubricant. Still stiff. I then looked up the issue on the internet and found that tactical knives were in fact adjusted in stiffness by their pivot bolts. The screws or bolts used on the Yojimbo 2 are those which take star-shaped wrenches, like the Apple iPhone, but much larger. Having had an iPhone with an issue, I had a set of such wrenches on hand.
I set to with the wrench, once I had the correct size wrench in hand, and in a few seconds, loosened the pivot bolt by about 5 degrees. I tried it out. Still too stiff, but better. I then took it another 5 degrees and now it is perfect. I am sure that by making it tight, this served the manufacturer well in controlling tolerance and making tightening unnecessary for the user. Tightening can strip bolts, so it is safer to loosen. So this serves the user well.
The clip mounting holes allowed me to place the clip in the correct position, so that I, a lefty, could carry it securely tip-up in my left pocket. I would prefer the clip to be black in color instead of the uncolored stainless, but that is not a flaw, just a preference.
The size and quality of this knife make it a possibility as a compact survival knife, one you can trust, although the very sharp tip is a bit delicate in that role. Overall, I am very happy.
As an Amazon Prime customer, the shipping is fast and efficient for me, with few delays. I am quite happy with Amazon on this as well.
