Spyderco Bug Non-Locking Fix-Blade Knife, PlainEdge

I wanted a small knife to carry as a backup to either a Victorinox or a Leatherman. This works perfectly for that role. It was smaller than I had pictured, but is as described. It is extremely sharp, but easily pocketable.

I decided it was time to add a little functionality to my key chain. I already have a Fenix light, and a Gerber Shard to help in a pinch but I yearned for a small blade to have just in case I didn't have a folding knife with me. I didn't want anything menacing or too big and the Bug definitely was a great choice. It's tiny to the point it is almost cute but the blade is still wickedly sharp and every bit of quality you'd expect from Spyderco, just in a micro size. The all stainless steel look is pretty classy, too. Obviously, it's a slip joint lock so this isn't something you want to use as a heavy duty cutter. It's small enough to be functional but that's about it. Light duty tasks like opening boxes, envelopes, cutting string etc is all suitable for this tiny knife. But again, it's just too small to safely attempt anything beyond that. Even so, great have to have because it will always be with you (unless you happen to be flying or going in a courtroom, don't forget to remove it). It's actually just a tad smaller than my Victorinox keychain knife and MUCH sharper. Despite the familiar Spyderco hole, opening this thing is 2 handed affair. Still looks cool, though. I'm almost tempted to throw a zip tie in the hole and see if I can manage to open it with just my thumb. But then again, the small stature and classy look is perfect and I can live with decreased functionality. On a side note, when I first opened the little gift box it comes in, there was a small spot of rust on the blade. I buffed it out with a Dremel and some CLP and it actually opens a lot smoother now. Awesome and surprisingly small blade for your keys!

I cannot believe how sharp this little knife is. It is cute, tiny and SHARP! I purchased a key organizer called a quiet carry mini Q and it has a larger blade, but this tiny little Spyderco Bug cuts through amazon boxes, tape, that thick cardboard type tape and even zip ties better than the $50 knife in the mini q cuts. The bug is literally the perfect size EDC knife, especially for people who just want a simple small blade for basic everyday tasks. I could probably easily slice an apple with it as well if I wanted to. It's perfect for opening boxes, cutting strings off clothes and removing staple from papers when your stapler remover disappears. It's the perfect size to go on a keychain because it's smaller than your keys and won't bulge or weigh down your pocket. It does take me two hands to open it, but I've never been in a situation where I needed to open a knife so quickly and only had one hand to do so. The blade is nice and stiff when you use it. I'm not worried about it opening in my pocket or closing on me when I'm using it. I will be purchasing these for all of my family because it's easily one of the most perfect purchases I have ever made on amazon. It's small, simple and sharp. These will be great small size Christmas presents that will actually be appreciated by family and not something they wish they could exchange or end up regifting.

I dig it, I wasn’t sure what I was expecting but I dig Spyderco so it’s cool. Check it out it’s smaller than a normal sized key. Seem like initial quality is ok I guess it’s probably made in China, whatever it will only see occasional use I just hope I don’t happen to forget it and TSA siezes it that happened to me once I forgot I had a nice Spydrrco in my backpack and dang it I had to surrender it because I didn’t have time to go back through and “mail it to myself”. Looks sharp enough, I like that it’s all stainless. Should hold up ok I reckon.

I made the purchase of the Spyderco bug as a key chain item that i could edc. Upon arrival i did expect something slightly larger but i was impressed with the craftmenship and the blade came sharp out the box. I luv this little knife. Although i prefer to edc something else i do enjoy showing this little knife off. Its small yet effective please do not let its size fool you. Its extemely sharp. I do not carry only because i dont want too loose it considering i misplace my keys and i wouldn't want this guy to get lost or accidentaly taken? For a size comparison i put its big brother in the pic. I did not recieve a discount nore any other offer for my review. If you want to carry a small edc that goes unoticed this is the knife for you or your spouse?

To begin with, I'm not a knife lover. I use them for a purpose and then move on with life. Types of metals don't really interest me all that much. Can I put an edge on it and do I use it are the only questions I care about. I do own a bunch of different types of knives but they are all for everyday use. Please keep that in mind when reading this. The knife is ridiculously small. It almost doesn't register as a knife. I wouldn't trust it past opening a package or the occasional odd job. That's not a bad thing, because it sits on my key ring and I use it just for that. It has a keen edge right out of the box and can hold it for awhile. It is inconspicuous because of it's size which is just what I want from it. It opens with the right amount of give when I juiced it up with break free. Closes easily. I really don't consider it a true knife. It's a tiny little specilized blade that works well as a letter opener. Anything past that I would take out my Kershaw knives as they are bigger and do a lot more. But for the money it does it's job and stays hidden.

It's a cute li'l bugger, but also very useful as a box cutter/opener. The joint is very stiff, instilling confidence that the knife will not close up on you while using it. Typical Spyderco quality. For twenty-five bucks, ya gotta have one.

So I needed an EDC but was really tied of my zt pulling my pants down, seriously suspenders and a gun belt wasn't enough to keep my britches up because that zt weighed like 5 ounces! So I tried a Spyderco manix but it is HUGE in my pocket, so much so I had to just squeeze it into my back pocket. It was a real bummer. So I found a lighten, smaller Benchmade but good God, the handles were so FAT! It was lighter than the zt, narrower than the Spyderco but so thick. Looked (and felt) like I was carrying a 2x4 in my pocket. So I decided to give the bug a chance. It's still a little heavy for it's size, and does take up more space in your pocket but I just don't know what else to do. I would like to warn people, this had NO pocket clip! I can't believe they would not add a pocket clip, I mean, even my keys have a pocket clip. I had to fabricate one. The lanyard hole is NOT big enough for 550 Paracord! Not even gutted Paracord, hell not even for the non military spec, Chinese stuff. Super bummed about that. The spider hole is not working for me, I tried to flick, do the fancy swing snap and even just regular thumb swoop and no dice. I had to actually grasp the blade to pull it open. It probably just needs to break in. Even though it's Chinese, the blade came centered. I checked the edge and although it's pretty good, there is probably 60 nanometers of variance in bevel angle. No micro bevel either but it's at least as sharp as a Kershaw cryo 2. The handle scales are really slick, if you were to have sweat or blood on your hands, it could be downright unsafe! They should have used g-10, it would have reduced the weight too. There is absolutely no jimping anywhere on the knife so this will not get any tactical use from me! It's a shame since the blade shape is so similar to the para military, we all know that's an awesome tactical blade. WARNING WARNING WARNING JUST DID THE SPINE WACK TEST! IT FAILED!!! It wasn't as bad as the Kershaw blur, we all know how unsafe that knife is but yea, it failed and closed when I wacked it with a big stick. So watch those fingers! The box was nice, well executed cardboard construction. With all the negatives you're probably wondering why it gets five stars. Well it's not fat, heavy or wide so clearly that makes it better than most anything else on the market.

Being a Spydaco knife you're getting great workmanship. The knife easily conforms to UK carry standards, and unlike cheap box blades, this knife retains a good edge and sharpness for the time you might need to open a box or cut some string. Although it's more expensive than others, I like the sturdiness of the knife. It is a tiny thing, however, so if you have grip problems with your hands then it might not be the easiest knife for you to open. The upside is it's weight, and you can even put this into a coin purse to carry it around. As I said, it easily conforms to UK standards for knives on your person, although some places don't allow knives of any kind, this one doesn't lock, and the blade is less than 3 inches, thus making it okay for everyday carry. If you don't mind paying a bit more, then hopefully this is the little knife you can count on in an emergency.

[ achat : 21/10/2019 | publication/maj de cet avis : 24/09/2022 | produit conservé ? OUI ] Là ! Voilà ! Ça c’est le genre de petit couteau que l’on est content, enfin que je suis content d’avoir sur moi tous les jours attaché à mon porte-clés. 3 ans que je l’ai et il n’a pas bougé, il faudrait juste que je pense à l’aiguiser un peu. Ce petit couteau réuni 3 qualités que j’attendais ; la petite taille, la robustesse, la qualité de coupe. Sa lame est peut-être un peu courte, c’est le seul reproche que je pourrais lui faire, mais si je voulais vraiment une lame plus longue, c’est très simple, et il existe un modèle plus grand. C’est un choix Il y a des fabricants qui vous vendent leurs couteaux comme de parfaits accessoires EDC quand ça n’est pas le cas (Nitecore NTK05…), ce petit Spyderco lui, ne m’a pas toujours pas fait défaut. [ Sauf pour un produit qui n’en aurait pas besoin, je m'efforce de ne publier mes avis qu'à partir d'1 mois d'utilisation minimum pour que mon retour soit un minimum pertinent.

Hat den schärfsten Grundschliff. Rasieren kein Problem. Aber warum? Zu klein selbst für den Schlüsselbund. Dazu ziemlich schwergängiger Slip Joint. Habe es als Scherzartikel für die Arbeit benutzt falls jemand nach einem Messer/Cutter fragt. Jetzt kommt es in eine Mini Vitrine zum aufbrechen für eine ... Mini Zombie Apocalypse... Normalerweise gibt es das im 3er Set für 20$. Habe 20€ für das Ding bezahlt. Naja. Als Scherzartikel gut - aber zu klein selbst für den gelegentlichen Einsatz oder als Backup.

Cumple con lo esperado. Es una navaja muy pequeña, cabe fácilmente en el bolsillo.
