Description

Designed by Spyderco co-founder and Blade Magazine Hall of Fame member Sal Glesser, the Bodacious is named after an American bucking bull that became famous as the world’s most dangerous bull. Inspired by that legendary animal’s indomitable spirit and impressive strength, their Bodacious is a hell-for-stout folding knife designed for unfailing reliability. Its broad, leaf-shaped blade is full-flat ground from their proprietary CPM SPY27. Developed in close cooperation with Crucible Industries, this state-of-the-art powder metallurgy steel supercharges the cobalt-enriched chemistry of VG-10 stainless steel with niobium, nitrogen, and increased volumes of carbon, molybdenum, and vanadium. The resulting material offers an exceptional balance of edge retention, toughness, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening. The knife’s signature cobalt blue handle is built on a framework of skeletonized stainless steel liners nested within smooth G-10 scales. In addition to providing structural strength, the liners form the foundation of the knife’s high-strength Compression Lock mechanism and provide a secure mounting platform for its broad-based pocket clip, which is reversible for left or right-side tip-up carry.
