Description
Description
The Spyderco Techno 2 is a variant of the first Techno, equipped with an attractive sheepsfoot blade and standoff construction rather than the original's drop point blade and backspacer.
The Polish knifemaker Marcin Slysz gave his Techno folder a progressive European appearance. This model falls into Spyderco’s “Little Big Knives” category, meaning it features a smaller blade and handle, paired up with a hard-duty locking mechanism, premium blade steel and vault-like construction found primarily on larger hard-use knives. A reversible deep carry pocket clip finishes off the solid Slysz design.
Features:- Classic thumb hole opener and a reversible wire pocket clip allow for ambidextrous use.
- Thick CTS-XHP steel blade has a high saber grind for advanced edge geometry and strength.
- A high strength Reeve Integral lock provides secure blade lock up.

The orginal Techno was a clunker. More of a chisel than a knife. This knife is the amoung the most perfectly designed knifes available at any cost. Beautiful blade, perfectly balanced with frame. Quality production and a real work of Art.

Context: I think Spyderco is my favorite knife maker. I own a lot of Spyderco, Case, GEC, a few Benchmade, Hinderer and CRK. I primarily carry a PM2 or Delica to work and a GEC or Techno in more dressy outfits. I love the original Techno appearance and feel in the hand, but dislike its thick blade stock. I bought the Techno 2 in hopes that it is slightly more slice-oriented with the thinner stock.
My opinion of the Techno 2 is that it is a solid improvement on the original Techno. It has much thinner blade stock with improved blade shape (for slicing) and point. I appreciate that the thicker scales on the Techno 2 retain that "tanky" feel from the original Techno. The centering and lockup are perfect as expected from a Ti frame-lock from Spyderco. Scale shape is an improvement for grip (at least for my mid-small hand). Lanyard hole location is also improved. I like the green standoffs, but I like the blue back-spacer too. Clip is unchanged.
I will be keeping my original Techno because I still think its a great piece for any Spyderco collection, but I don't see myself carrying it over the Techno 2 for any reason. The Techno 2 is a significant improvement in my opinion.
