Product Description
The Spyderco Manbug Wharncliffe MBKWS is an ultra-compact folder engineered for users who demand big-knife performance in a diminutive package. Featuring a 1.91-inch VG-10 stainless steel blade, this model utilizes a Wharncliffe profile with a perfectly straight cutting edge. This geometry ensures that the full force of every cut is transferred all the way to the acute, scalpel-like point. This version is equipped with a fully serrated SpyderEdge™, providing a massive increase in cutting surface area to effortlessly rip through tough, fibrous materials like rope, webbing, and heavy plastic.
The handle is constructed from injection-molded Black FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), offering a "meatier" and more ergonomic grip than its cousin, the Ladybug. Spyderco’s signature Bi-Directional Texture™ ensures a non-slip hold, while the reliable back lock mechanism features the David Boye Dent to prevent accidental disengagement under heavy pressure. Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, the Manbug is designed for keychain or fifth-pocket carry, providing a professional-grade cutting tool that is always within reach.
