Spyderco – Folding Knife Byrd Harrier 2 – Stainless Steel Plain – BY01P2

Byrd Harrier 2 EDC folding knife Stainless Steel Plain Gray Spyderco BY01P2

The Harrier 2 is an excellent tool for everyday carry, appreciated by many users. The latest version of this popular knife features a classic format made entirely of stainless steel, reminiscent of "old-school" Spyderco folders.

The knife’s handle, beautifully crafted, features beveled edges and ground pins that disappear into a satin finish, giving it an elegant look. The 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade, known for its high hardness (57-62 HRC) and excellent corrosion resistance, has a completely flat grind for added functionality.

All other features of the Harrier 2 are consistent with earlier versions of this model. Equipped with a strong locking mechanism and a versatile four-position hourglass belt clip, the knife is extremely comfortable and practical to use. Thanks to the use of 8Cr13MoV steel, characterized by easy sharpening and high durability, the Harrier 2 provides long-lasting and reliable performance.

The Spyderco Byrd Harrier 2 Stainless Plain model combines the features of the Cara Cara 2 and Meadowlark 2 folders, offering an ideal cutting tool for everyday use. With its size, it sits between these popular models, offering the best features of both. Reminiscent of Spyderco’s "old-school" knives, it is available with classic stainless steel liners, further enhancing its unique character and style.

The 8Cr13MoV steel, equivalent to Japanese AUS-8 steel, is distinguished by its high chromium (13%) and carbon (0.8%) content, which provides excellent corrosion resistance. The addition of molybdenum (0.30%), vanadium (0.25%) and nickel (0.20%) increases the steel’s strength and wear resistance.

These properties make the Harrier 2 blade extremely durable and reliable, making it an ideal choice for anyone who needs a reliable knife for everyday use.
