Spyderco SpydieChef Frame Lock Knife Gray Ti (3.3" Satin) C211TIP

Super slim and lightweight. Excellent blade and action. It took me quite a while to buy it due to the price tag, but I have not had a single regret since placing the order!! If you're on the fence, do it. This knife makes me happy every time I handle it!

Got this on an impulse. I wasnt certain that I wanted it because it looks like a dumb banana when it's closed and not too much of a looker when it's open either, but it is massively functional. Saved a few family dinners last Christmas when the rental house had completely dull knives.

Great knife for everyday carry, ergonomics and blade profile make it a great knife for a variety of roles, I use it a lot for chopping vegetables and fruits while camping. LC2000N holds an edge very well considering its high corrosion resistance and I feel like you're not sacrificing anything for that feature. My ony gripes is the location of the spydie hole make it hard to do a right hand spyie-flick, I've learned to use my thumb instead. Unfortunately due to this feature paired with occasional lock-stick, I find my PM2 makes its way into my pocket more often than the 'Chef. Still an awesome knife, 4/5 stars considering everything else

I bought this knife to throw in my camping gear because I thought the idea of a folding food prep knife was great.

The problem is i like it so much i find myself carrying it every day and using it for everything. Luckily the LC200 N seems to take and hold an edge very well so it can still serve its intended purpose.

The Spydiechef is one of my favorite knives in my collection. Lockup is rock solid and feels great in the hand. Works great for edc, especially in areas by the ocean because of the corrosion resistance. However, I will note that the lanyard tube can rattle ever so slightly. But everything is so great that it doesn’t even bother me.

Finally picked up one of these bad boys the other day. worth the money 100%. No clue if it cuts good because i'm too afraid of hurting it so it sits in my room. This knife will help you land a date 100%. BTW anyone got a spyderco axe they want to get rid of?

I've wanted this knife for a long time and finally landed one last week. I couldn't be happier!! Its slim, lightweight, but also has a strong feel about it. The steel is amazing in the way that it doesn't need to be pampered or oiled all the time, also holds an edge comparable to s35vn.. it has tremendous cutting capabilities and the blade profile allows you to really get the whole blade down and into your materials being cut. Overall great knife, everyone who likes knives should at least have this in their hand one time...if your on the fence.....dont be.., this knife couldn't disappoint if it tried. Not to mention, you couldn't tear it up with a bull dozer and a jackhammer! Buy 2 , 1 for each hand lol! 👍😋

This knife is so smooth, no grit or blade play at all when you open it.

The good: The blade shape is great, cuts tomatoes well, the handles are very thin. so it's easy to carry. There is no blade play and it feels like a solid knife.

The bad:

Many people love spyderco wire pocket clips, I am one of those people, I have a dragonfly and I like how thet clip is on that knife, however, the wire clip is pretty flimsy, on the dragonfly that doesn't really matter because the FRN handles don't show wear, but on this knife, the pocket clip slides back and forth on the titanium handle and show wear very easily and I assume it will only get worse with time, so I took the clip off and carry it in pocket.

The lockbar is also fairly uncomfortable to push down and makes the knife hard to close, but I suspect this will become easier when it breaks in.

The price is pretty high, $190 would be more reasonable.


2 WEEK UPDATE:

It is now easier to dis-engage the lock bar.

The lanyard tube started rattling, I have heard this is a common problem, I guess I could use some blue locktite to fix this.

Amazing knife perfect for EDC

Don't be turned off by the blade shape, it's great for edc!

The grip is awesome and it cuts great. Very fast deployment.

I own a lot of high end knives. Koenig, Curtis, begg, hinderer etc. and if I could only buy one knife this would be it! Great fit and finish and it is not simply a folding food prep knife. Excellent utility knife with great construction! Not to mention the steel is essentially rust proof and actually holds a great edge. Highly recommended!

This is a great design, very ergonomic and disappears in the pocket. The LC200N steel is amazing. Takes a keen edge and holds it well.
