The Spyderco Manbug MBKP delivers precision cutting performance in an ultra-compact 1.95-inch package. This stonewashed VG-10 stainless steel blade maintains its edge through demanding daily tasks while the ergonomic FRN handle provides secure grip control.
What Makes This Different

Its compact profile measures just 4.5 inches overall length when open, making it 30% smaller than traditional folding knives while maintaining full cutting functionality. The stonewashed finish reduces glare and hides scratches during extended use.
