Spyderco Endura Knife Review
Today after a lot of tweaking, refining, updating, and upgrading Spyderco has given us the best of the series, the new Endura 4.
With its journey starts with Sal Glesser and his wife Gail, in their old bread delivery truck. This Colorado-based knife manufacturing giant, Spyderco has grown so big, that it has kick-started and pioneered most of the common knife features like a round hole in the blade, pocket clip, and so on.
They started to outsource and moved a large part of knife production to foreign contractors. And this sleek, Endura 4 is a crown product of Spyderco which comes from the company’s Japan manufacturing unit.
The company doesn’t just have big numbers in revenue, but they have reached more people and places that scale greater than the revenue. Spyderco is the choice of most people from common householders, to hunters, and adventurers.

The Blade
Almost all manufacturing for VG-10 is made in Japan. The blade also comes with slip-resistant jimping in the spine. The phosphor bronze-made washers give a smooth feel and experience while opening and closing the knife. Even the clip is upgraded to give a better experience.
The Handle
These skeleton liners provide to be an anchor for all the components inside and outside the handle, making it extra tough and rigid. The clip at one side of the handle gives the option to tie on to a pocket or to hang on to something. The flat curved handle looks stylish.
The Locking Mechanism
But the whole design is customizable so the screws can be tightened and made new as before. This ability allows users to set their own tightness according to their needs. The lock makes sure the blade doesn’t close itself while in use. The old Spyderco Civilian lacked this feature.
Pros & Cons
Final Verdict
The blade that comes with this knife is also known as Japan’s super steel. It has excellent rust resistance, making it a suitable option for use in all kinds of environments (dry or wet) without a sign of a blemish. The blade can also be sharpened very easily. Most of the VG10 knives cost more than $100, but this model from Spyderco is economically the best option. This knife can be used by all kinds of people in different professions. This is one of the best busy models from Spyderco giving the best value for money.
Since this pocket knife has already received enough recognition, we can easily vouch for the fact that it has one of the most widespread positive responses and Spyderco considers it as a trademark owing to its high demand. It has been in the market for a long time and has generated impressive revenue throughout its course of time. Thus, with such products, the company is definitely aiming to set a benchmark in the market that will intimidate all of the other companies that manufacture knives.
