I have a coat I picked up when I was in Da lat (Vietnam) that I liked but hated an annoying shiny black emblem on the back. The next day I decided to take it to the most hardcore and brutal place ever.Laundromat. Next went to do some drills, That I didn't bring my trainer karambit, So I tried the Yojimbo since it was designed for self defense and Yojimbo literally translated to Bodyguard and it had a nice grip and feel to it. It isn't to heavy and the shape seems to rest in your pocket without making awkward outlines. On the way up stairs I decided to unclip it and let it feel in my pocket as I moved. (ya I am making up some words here but It is okay) It was a natural position and I really like that about the knife since I seem to get an earful from local College girls who believe a knife is only for mugging or violence. Even though the cutting edge and blade were legal length, I didn't feel like being called a bad person so I put my thumb in my pocket and let my fingers hang, It made the knife completely disappear. Now for the next challenge, The security guard I had to walk by was known for hassling people for anything that could be dangerous. My paramilitary 2 would usually remind me that it's in my pocket but wow! Great carriablity. Its shape makes it almost unnoticeable in the pocket! I am doing tip up right hand carry and I was amazed that I didn't notice it. I stuck my hand in my pocket digging for my phone and found the yojimbo just chilling there like a sloth. This is where the knife seemed to Shine (Bet you didn't expect that to come out here,) I forgot to take it out of my pocket and realized it after finished and rode my bike to another location.

After that I went to go workout then practice. Took it around and cut paper out of notebooks and some ties and some string the first day, nothing too demanding. I popped this baby into my pocket for a few days (and I plan on doing it for the foreseeable future as well now) and went about my duties as usual. Out of box sharpness was remarkable! I tapped it on my arm thinking maybe a hair or two but it took off a massive chunk of hair.Ī shaving sharp factory Edge isn't half bad as we all know.ĮDCing it for a few days (A rough overview): It had a nice glow because the Hollow ground blade kept picking up light at every angle (That is probably why it looks white in some pictures.) The blade had no corrosion or pitting which is good of course but also, the blade was a bit sharper then I expected. Picked it up and flicked it open with no problem, no odd sounds, no rattle, no compression lock problems. It came in a signature red Spyderco box and had a unique look to it as you can tell. 156' (4 mm) handle material G-10 Made in America Length closedĔ.51' (114 mm) cutting edgeĒ.95' (75 mm) weightĔ oz (113 g)īlade thickness.
