The Spyderco Byrd Robin 2 BY10PBK2 delivers reliable cutting performance in a compact, lightweight package designed for everyday carry. This folding knife combines practical blade geometry with durable construction materials to handle routine cutting tasks efficiently. Built on Spyderco's proven design principles, the Robin 2 offers dependable functionality at an accessible price point.
What Makes This Different
The Robin 2 features Spyderco's signature round hole opening system, allowing for smooth one-handed deployment even with gloves. Unlike traditional thumb studs or flippers, the 13mm round hole provides consistent opening leverage regardless of hand position. The bi-directional texturing on the FRN handle creates secure grip in both forward and reverse orientations, while the comet-shaped cutout reduces overall weight to just 1.8 ounces.
