Product Description
The YoJumbo C253GPNBKP is Michael Janich's Yojimbo 2 scaled up to a 3.98" Wharncliffe blade, here as a limited Sprint Run in pink G-10 with black DLC. Spyderco donates a portion of sales from its pink-handled knives to Living Beyond Breast Cancer.
CPM S30V is an American powder metallurgy stainless steel designed specifically for knife blades, with a balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Here it is hardened to 58-61 HRC and finished with a black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating for a non-reflective look. The 0.15" blade has a hollow grind for a thin, keen edge, and the straight Wharncliffe profile runs right out to a strong, controllable point.
- Blade: 3.98" CPM S30V Wharncliffe, hollow grind, black DLC coating, plain edge, 58-61 HRC, 0.15" thick.
- Handle: Pink G-10 scales with a medium peel-ply texture for grip, with black-coated liners and hardware; 5.37" closed, 5.3 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: Black four-position pocket clip for tip-up or tip-down carry on the right or left side; 9.29" overall.
Ideal for: users who want the Yojimbo 2 design in a full-size folder with a nearly 4-inch blade; Spyderco collectors tracking Sprint Runs and pink-handled models; and buyers who want their knife purchase to support a breast cancer charity.
The Spyderco YoJumbo Sprint Run in black DLC CPM S30V with pink G-10 (C253GPNBKP) ships same or next business day from Columbia, Louisiana. Knifeworks is an authorized Spyderco dealer.
Spyderco YoJumbo Sprint Run: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about the Spyderco YoJumbo Sprint Run (C253GPNBKP).
What lock does the Spyderco YoJumbo C253GPNBKP use?+
The YoJumbo uses Spyderco's Compression Lock, built into the black-coated 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.
Does this pink YoJumbo support a charity?+
Yes. Spyderco donates a portion of the sales of its pink-handled knives, including this YoJumbo, to Living Beyond Breast Cancer, a nonprofit organization that provides information and support to people affected by breast cancer.
How does the YoJumbo compare to the Yojimbo 2?+
Michael Janich designed the Yojimbo 2, and the YoJumbo is its scaled-up counterpart, with a 3.98-inch blade and a 5.37-inch closed length. It keeps the straight Wharncliffe edge with the point in line with the edge, which gives precise tip control, and the longer blade adds reach and cutting length for bigger tasks.
What is CPM S30V steel, and what does the black DLC coating do?+
CPM S30V is an American powder metallurgy stainless steel developed specifically for knife blades, with a balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. On this knife it is hardened to 58-61 HRC. The black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating gives the blade a non-reflective finish and adds a hard surface layer over the steel.
What comes with the YoJumbo C253GPNBKP?+
The C253GPNBKP ships as a knife with its four-position pocket clip installed. It is knife only, with no sheath included. Packaging and included items are set by Spyderco and are subject to change.
