Product Description
The MicroJimbo C264GPBN15V is Michael Janich's Yojimbo 2 scaled down to a 2.45" Wharncliffe folder, here as a limited Sprint Run in CPM 15V with a heat treat developed by custom knifemaker Shawn Houston. Brown G-10 scales mark it as part of Spyderco's CPM 15V family.
CPM 15V is a cold-work tool steel with almost 15 percent vanadium, which fills the blade with hard vanadium carbides. Spyderco says it offers the highest wear resistance of any cold-work tool steel available today, and in practice that means an edge that keeps cutting long after most knife steels have dulled. Spyderco's CPM 15V knives use a heat-treating protocol developed by Shawn Houston of Triple B Handmade, and this blade runs at 65 HRC with a full-flat grind and satin finish. Houston's Triple B logo is laser engraved on the reverse side of the blade.
- Blade: 2.45" CPM 15V Wharncliffe with a 2.23" cutting edge, full-flat grind, satin finish, plain edge, 65 HRC, 0.145" thick; Triple B logo on the reverse side.
- Handle: Brown peel-ply-textured G-10 scales over nested stainless steel liners; 3.80" closed, 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: steel enthusiasts who want to test CPM 15V's edge retention in daily carry; Spyderco collectors tracking Sprint Runs and the CPM 15V family; and EDC carriers who want a compact folder with a blade under 2.5 inches.
Care note: CPM 15V is a tool steel, not a stainless steel. It can rust or stain, so wipe it clean and dry after use and keep a light coat of oil on the blade.
Knife laws vary by location. Check your local laws before you buy or carry.

Spyderco MicroJimbo Sprint Run: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about the Spyderco MicroJimbo Sprint Run (C264GPBN15V).
What lock does the Spyderco MicroJimbo C264GPBN15V 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.
What is CPM 15V, and what is the Triple B heat treat?+
CPM 15V is a cold-work tool steel with almost 15 percent vanadium, which creates a very high volume of hard vanadium carbides. Spyderco says it offers the highest wear resistance of any cold-work tool steel available today. Spyderco's CPM 15V knives use a heat-treating protocol developed by custom knifemaker Shawn Houston of Triple B Handmade, and his Triple B logo is laser engraved on the reverse side of this blade.
How do I care for and sharpen a CPM 15V blade?+
CPM 15V is not a stainless steel, so it can rust or stain if left wet or dirty. Wipe the blade clean and dry after use, especially after cutting food or handling it with sweaty hands, and keep a light coat of oil on it. Because of its high vanadium content and 65 HRC hardness, it is slow to sharpen on conventional stones, so diamond or CBN abrasives work best.
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.
What comes with the MicroJimbo C264GPBN15V?+
The C264GPBN15V ships as a knife with its reversible deep-pocket wire clip installed. It is knife only, with no sheath included. Packaging and included items are set by Spyderco and are subject to change.
Where is the MicroJimbo C264GPBN15V made, and what warranty covers it?+
