Product Description
The Spyderco Charisma™ Red C259PRD is a revolutionary "featherweight" everyday carry folder that redefines the limits of lightweight engineering. Designed by Eric Glesser, the Charisma provides a full-sized 2.98" cutting edge while tipping the scales at a mere 0.8 ounces. The blade is precision-ground from CTS® BD1N stainless steel, a nitrogen-enriched American alloy known for its exceptional edge retention, toughness, and superior corrosion resistance. With a surgical 0.05" blade thickness, it offers world-class slicing performance that glides through daily cutting tasks with ease.
The handle is injection-molded from vibrant Red FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), offering a high-visibility look that is easy to locate in a pack or emergency kit. The handle features bilateral longitudinal grooves and a pebbled texture for an unshakeable, non-slip grip despite its ultra-slim profile. Safety is ensured by a robust back lock mechanism featuring a Boye Dent to prevent accidental closure during high-pressure use. Proudly made in Golden, Colorado, the Charisma Red is the definitive choice for minimalist carry in any environment.
