Product Description
The Spyderco Sage™ 6 CPM REX 121 C123GPBO121 is a high-performance folding knife that marries elite mechanical innovation with world-record metallurgy. As the sixth installment in the Sage series, this model pays tribute to custom knifemaker Kevin Smock by incorporating his Button-Release Compression Lock. This mechanism allows for the high-strength security of a traditional Compression Lock but with the added convenience of a handle-mounted button for smooth, one-handed closing without placing fingers in the blade's path.
The 3.0" blade is crafted from CPM® REX® 121, an ultra-high-vanadium, cobalt-bearing tool steel engineered by Crucible® Industries. Known for having the highest wear resistance and hardness of any commercially available high-speed steel, REX 121 provides "unparalleled" cutting stamina. The handle is constructed from Burnt Orange G-10—the signature color for Spyderco's REX 121 lineup—and features a peel-ply texture for a secure, non-slip grip. With its full-flat grind and reversible deep-pocket wire clip, the Sage 6 is the definitive choice for the serious enthusiast who demands the absolute pinnacle of edge retention.
