The Spyderco Endura 4 C10PS delivers reliable cutting performance with its 3.85-inch VG-10 stainless steel blade and proven lock-back mechanism. This full-sized folding knife combines Japanese steel quality with Spyderco's signature ergonomic design for demanding cutting tasks.
What Makes This Different
The Endura 4 features VG-10 steel, a premium Japanese stainless steel that holds a razor-sharp edge longer than standard 440C or AUS-8 steels. The blade's flat grind geometry maximizes cutting efficiency while the reinforced tip handles piercing tasks without breaking. Spyderco's trademark round hole allows for ambidextrous one-handed opening, even with wet or gloved hands.
Key Features
- 3.85-inch VG-10 stainless steel blade with superior edge retention
- Flat grind blade geometry for efficient slicing performance
- Lock-back mechanism provides secure blade lockup during use
- Signature Spyderco round hole for reliable one-handed deployment
- Stainless steel handle scales resist corrosion and wear
- Four-position pocket clip accommodates left or right-hand carry
- Lanyard hole for additional retention options
Field testing shows the VG-10 steel maintains cutting ability through extended use while resisting chip damage on harder materials. The lock-back design engages positively under load, making this knife suitable for utility work, outdoor activities, and everyday carry applications. The stainless steel construction performs consistently in wet conditions without significant corrosion concerns.
