Spyderco Assist Rescue Folding Knife, VG-10 Black Coated Combo Edge, FRN, Glass Breaker, Whistle C79PSBBK

Product Description

The Spyderco Assist is a purpose-built rescue folder designed to perform when seconds count. Its VG-10 stainless steel blade features a non-reflective black carbon nitride coating, a patented blunt-tip profile, and a combo edge that delivers aggressive cutting power while leaving a short PlainEdge section for detail work. A Cobra Hood above the Round Hole guides the thumb for confident, by-feel opening and provides extra leverage in use. The bi-directional textured FRN handle is lightweight and secure in hand, and it integrates a high-pitched emergency whistle. For added versatility, the knife includes a retractable, replaceable carbide glass breaker and a reversible wire clip for ambidextrous tip-up carry. A wavy groove along the spine and handle enables controlled, scissor-style rope cutting without fully exposing the edge.
