SpydercoLadybug Folding Pocket Knife with 1.9" Steel Blade and FRN Handle - EDC Knife for Men and Women, Perfect for Hunting, Tactical, Camping, Survival

K390 steel is exceptional. I had to remove a bit of a burr off this out of the box, but this steel is amazing and a favorite of mine now. It sharpens into a light saber and retains an edge very well. I would like a bigger knife, but these aren't cheap and Spyderco seems to be the only large company selling it. I don't like the lock back and I think the hole on Spyderco knives is so weird. But, it functions amazingly well for a micro blade and that makes it a huge winner for me.

Incredible blade. Holds its edge better than anything I've ever owned. I cut a 2" long section of hydraulic braided steel line in an area I could not put a grinding wheel on. No pocket knife I've ever owned could do that. Yes it took a lot of prying the tip underneath each strand one by one but in the end the blade was hardly chipped at all and easily sharpened back into shape. This steel is so strong I made it 3 months without resharpening unlike my best knives I sharpened weekly from cutting drain in the ground covered in mud and dirt to cutting boxes and straps maintaining a razor edge.Unlike most knives the edges are somewhere between 20 and 25°. This is around 15 and 17° I can't use my MK2 work Sharp sharpener for it so I highly recommend you know how to hand sharpen or buy a precision sharpening tool.It sharpens to a incredibly razor edge if you do it right. Most steals will not get this Sharp let alone retain the edge.I highly recommend all of spyderco's k390 knifes. I've purchased several for friends and family in multiple sizes and everyone loves them. Very light and comfortable to carry in your pocket.

This is the perfect size for an every day carry knife. It is not a utility tool, but I don't need a utility tool on me at all times. This knife holds a sharp edge very well. It is very light and does not leave bruise on my leg from carrying it in my pocket.

It is small but perfect, I have a few of them.

Ok

Great little blade. Very small but powerful. My only complaint is that it arrived in the box but with fingerprints on the blade and a scratch on the butt of the knife. It doesn’t look new but works fine.

This is my second spyderco, my first was a Manbug Wharncliffe 1.91" VG-10, but I lost it. I loved the knife quality so I ordered this Ladybug 3 to replace it. This one's swing was much stiffer than the first one, but not impossible to open one handed and figured it would loosen over time anyway. But now the screw for the pivot section has just randomly fallen out. If I want a knife that was going to fall apart after only 6 months of very lite use, then I would have bought a crappy $10-20 knife. If spyderco is willing to even just send a replacement screw then I'd still be willing to buy from them again. I plan on buy a bigger knife soon, but I'm not risking $150-200 on something that might start falling apart in under a year.
