Designed by Spyderco co-founder Sal Glesser as the perfect knife for forward-deployed military personnel, the original Military™ Model is one of the cutlery industry’s most iconic designs. More than 25 years after its original release, the eagerly anticipated Military™ 2 builds on that hard-earned reputation while incorporating several significant design improvements.
Instead of a LinerLock, the Military 2’s full-flat-ground CPM® S30V® blade is supported by Spyderco’s signature Compression Lock® mechanism, which offers greater strength and even safer one-handed operation. The stainless steel liners that form the foundation of the lock are larger, giving the knife increased structural strength and anchoring its four-position pocket clip, which is configurable for left or right-side, tip-up or tip-down carry. The skeletonized liners are nested within peel-ply-textured G-10 scales to maintain a slim profile, complement its open-backed construction, and reduce the knife’s overall weight.
Like its predecessor, the Military 2’s blade includes a textured index-finger choil and thumb ramp that provide a solid purchase for a forward-positioned grip, offering enhanced control during precise cutting tasks. The blade’s signature Trademark Round Hole™ proudly announces the design’s Spyderco pedigree and is fully accessible to allow quick, positive, one-handed opening with either hand.
