The Spyderco Sage Series pays tribute to the most significant innovations in folding knife lock mechanisms—and the Sage 5 proudly showcases one of Spyderco’s own: the patented Compression Lock. This used model has seen light carry and use, but remains in great condition with smooth action, solid lockup, and only minor cosmetic signs of wear.
 
The Compression Lock is a standout feature here. Positioned on the spine of the handle, it allows for safe, one-handed closing without putting your fingers in the blade path. It's not only safer than traditional liner locks but also significantly stronger and more reliable under load.
 
The 3.03" leaf-shaped blade is crafted from CPM S30V stainless steel, offering excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. It features a full-flat grind for precise slicing and Spyderco’s iconic Round Hole for easy ambidextrous deployment.
 
The handle is built from a carbon fiber/G10 laminate that’s peel-ply textured for grip without being abrasive. Slim and ergonomic, it fits naturally in the hand and carries easily thanks to a reversible deep-carry wire pocket clip.
 
Compact, lightweight, and made for real-world performance, this used Sage 5 is an outstanding EDC for collectors and users alike.
