SPYDERCO TECHNO 3 – C158TIP3 – CTS-XHP SATIN SHEEPSFOOT BLADE, GRAY CHAMFERED TITANIUM HANDLE, R.I.L. FRAME LOCK, MADE IN ITALY
Custom Elegance. Precision Engineering. Slysz’s Vision Perfected in Titanium.
Designed by renowned knifemaker Marcin Slysz, the Techno 3 is Spyderco’s elegant factory-made realization of his “Mouse 3” custom folder. A sleek evolution of the Techno line, this third-generation model is made in Maniago, Italy, and represents a refined blend of craftsmanship, performance, and high-tech styling.
The compact sheepsfoot blade is forged from premium CTS-XHP stainless steel—a particle metallurgy alloy offering an ideal balance of corrosion resistance, edge retention, and toughness. It features a high flat grind and swedge for precise slicing and tip control, along with a removable flipper tab and miniature Round Hole for ambidextrous branding and backup opening.
The knife’s handle showcases intricately machined, matte-finished solid titanium scales with faceted chamfers for ergonomic comfort and visual appeal. Its Reeve Integral Lock (R.I.L.) includes a stainless steel interface that ensures steel-on-steel contact and reliable overtravel control. The titanium backspacer and internally mounted tip-up clip round out a clean and cohesive design tailored for right-side carry and pocket sophistication.
