Outlet Sale Spyderco ARK “Always Ready Knife” Neck Knife, 2.96″ H1 Steel Blade, FRN Handle – FB35PBK

The heart of the ARK is its deeply curved clip-point blade ground from H-1 steel. The curved edge and deep hollow grind ensure exceptional edge geometry and pack as much edge length as possible into the compact blade. Spyderco decided to invest in the tooling to mold a fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) handle directly onto the blade’s tang.

An FRN handle allowed the use of Spyderco’s proven Bi-Directional Texturing pattern, which provides unparalleled grip control even when wet. To ensure convenient, universal carry with any style of clothing (including none at all) the logical choice was to equip the ARK with a neck sheath supports the weight of the knife and resists the force of a rapid drawstroke, but cannot be turned against the wearer as a choking weapon like the paracord lanyards found on many neck knives.
