Product Description
The MicroJimbo C264GPCBL takes Michael Janich's Yojimbo 2 and scales it down to a 2.45" Wharncliffe folder that keeps the full-size design's critical proportions. It fits smaller hands and pockets and deploys just like the larger knife.
This version carries a blade in CPM SPY27, Spyderco's proprietary powder metallurgy stainless steel. Spyderco describes it as an improved take on VG-10, with vanadium, molybdenum, niobium, and nitrogen added and cobalt as its signature element. Spyderco says the result balances edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, so it holds a working edge well and still sharpens without much fuss. Hardened to 60-62 HRC, the 0.145" blade has a full-flat grind and a satin finish, so the straight edge slices cleanly right out to the point.
- Blade: 2.45" CPM SPY27 Wharncliffe with a 2.23" cutting edge, full-flat grind, satin finish, plain edge, 60-62 HRC, 0.145" thick.
- Handle: Cobalt blue G-10 scales with a peel-ply texture for grip, over nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners; 3.80" closed, 0.53" thick, 2.9 oz.
- Deployment + Lock: Spyderco Round Hole for one-handed opening; the Compression Lock releases from the spine side, so your fingers stay clear of the closing blade.
- Carry: Reversible deep-pocket wire clip for tip-up carry on the right or left side; 6.22" overall.
Ideal for: EDC carriers who want a compact, low-profile folder with a blade under 2.5 inches; users with smaller hands who want the Yojimbo 2 design at a smaller size; and Spyderco fans who want to try CPM SPY27.
Knife laws vary by location. Check your local laws before you buy or carry.
The Spyderco MicroJimbo in CPM SPY27 with cobalt blue G-10 (C264GPCBL) ships same or next business day from Columbia, Louisiana. Knifeworks is an authorized Spyderco dealer.
Spyderco MicroJimbo: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about the Spyderco MicroJimbo (C264GPCBL).
What lock does the Spyderco MicroJimbo C264GPCBL use?+
The MicroJimbo uses Spyderco's Compression Lock, built into the nested stainless steel liners. When the knife is open, a leaf spring in the liner wedges between the blade tang and the stop pin. You release it from the spine side of the handle with one hand, which keeps your fingers out of the blade's path as it closes.
How does the MicroJimbo compare to the Yojimbo 2?+
Michael Janich designed the Yojimbo 2, and the MicroJimbo scales it down while keeping the critical dimensional relationships of the larger knife. That includes the straight Wharncliffe edge with the point in line with the edge, which gives precise control for opening packages, breaking down boxes, and detail cuts. The MicroJimbo carries that geometry in a 2.45-inch blade and a 3.80-inch closed length, sized for smaller hands and pockets.
What is CPM SPY27 steel?+
CPM SPY27 is Spyderco's proprietary powder metallurgy stainless steel. Spyderco describes it as an improved version of VG-10, with vanadium, molybdenum, niobium, and nitrogen in the alloy and cobalt as its signature element. Spyderco says it offers a balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, and it is easier to sharpen than very high-vanadium steels.
What comes with the MicroJimbo C264GPCBL?+
The C264GPCBL ships as a knife with its reversible pocket clip installed. It is knife only, with no sheath included. Packaging and included items are set by Spyderco and are subject to change.

The C264CFP Sprint Run uses CPM S90V steel with solid carbon fiber scales at 3.0 ounces, and is a limited production batch.
