The **Spyderco Ambitious Lightweight** is an ambitious little pocket knife. Small but powerful. It's easy to carry, and thanks to the rounded edge, it's more convenient to use than you might think! The Ambitious Lightweight is made from lightweight materials and has 'skeletonized' steel liners. This means that the knife is sturdy, yet very lightweight. You can wear the pocket clip in four different ways.




The Spyderco Ambitious Lightweight C148SBK serrated pocket knife is a nice EDC knife in the colour black. With its blade length of 6 cm, it's a compact pocket knife that effortlessly fits inside your pocket. You can also notice this in the weight of 75 g. You'll barely notice you're carrying it with you!



You can easily open the Spyderco Ambitious Lightweight C148SBK serrated pocket knife with one hand using the thumb hole. Once opened, the sturdy liner lock ensures that the knife is locked and won't accidentally snap shut during use.



## Blade made of 8Cr13MoV steel
The blade is made of 8Cr13MoV. Quite the name, we agree, but what you need to know is the following: 8Cr13MoV is easy to sharpen to a razor-sharp edge. Its sharpness retention is okay, and it's pretty corrosion resistant. It is a popular budget steel because it performs well for its relatively low price.



The blade of this knife is enhanced with a 'satin finish'. This is a chic and tasteful finish that is very popular.



## Handle made of FRN

The handle of the Spyderco Ambitious Lightweight C148SBK serrated pocket knife is made of FRN and measures 9 cm in length. FRN stands for *Fibre-Reinforced Nylon*. That makes it a type of plastic made from nylon, and reinforced with glass fibres for additional strength and durability. FRN is also known as GFN.



## Designer Eric Glesser
Eric Glesser is the son of Sal Glesser, founder of Spyderco. As a child, he used to sit in a box under the table while his parents sold knives at fairs. Today, Eric runs the day-to-day operations at Spyderco. Eric is an accomplished knife designer himself. Some of the most popular Spyderco knives were designed by Eric Glesser.



## Spyderco: great pioneer in the world of knives
Spyderco is one of the world's leading knife companies. Many innovations were made by this brand, think of the pocket clip, the thumb hole, a large range of locking mechanisms, but also steel types. It's safe to say the knife world would have looked very different indeed without Spyderco.

Spyderco was founded in 1976 by Sal and Gail Glesser. Interestingly, they didn't start out selling knives. The first product Sal and Gail sold was a soldering tool, which they sold travelling around markets. Then came a sharpening system, causing Sal to start experimenting with pocket knives. In his quest for a knife that was easier to open with one hand, he came up with the idea for a round thumb hole while experimenting. A stroke of pure genius.

Today, the next generation is at the helm of Spyderco. Eric Glesser, the son of Sal and Gail, works hard every day to further establish Spyderco as a leading knife brand.
