Spyderco Zoomer
About Spyderco Zoomer
The Zoomer is a remarkably innovative fixed-blade knife cReated specifically for bushcraft and wilderness survival. Designed by Tom Zoomer, an outdoor enthusiast and survival skills instructor from the Netherlands, it features a broad, drop-point blade expertly crafted from Crucible CPM 20CV particle metallurgy stainless steel. This advanced alloy contains a high volume of vanadium carbides and the highest amount of chromium of any vanadium-rich steel currently available. This potent recipe of elements ensures high wear resistance, superior corrosion resistance, and impressive impact toughnessproperties that are further enhanced by a classic hamaguri (convex) grind that ensures a breathtakingly sharp yet resilient cutting edge.For maximum strength and comfort, the Zoomers stout concealed tang extends completely through the knifes handle, which consists of two mirror-image pieces of solid G-10 painstakingly machined to yield a beautifully contoured, hand-filling grip devoid of hot spots. A recess at the butt end of the handle allows access to the tangs lanyard hole and leaves the tang end exposed as a potential hammer surface. Most notably, an extended shelf at the handles forward end provides a rest for the users thumb, enhancing comfort, control, and leverage during detailed cutting chores.The Zoomers sheath is crafted from thick, premium-quality leather. It features a wide, floating belt loop and deep, pouch-style construction that holds the knife securely with the edge facing in either direction. A large covered pouch also offers handy on-board storage for small tools and other survival gear. To protect your Zoomer knife and sheath when not in use, and as an extra added touch of class, it comes complete with a handsome zippered storage pouch.

Great Knife, with a combination of great features combined in one knife..
First off, it has the most comfortable handle I have ever had, and not just in the standard hold. No hot spot anywhere, and in any position. The convex edge grind is super sharp, and the steel is the best you can currently get in a production blade. The fit and finish is perfect, and is better than many customs. The sheath is over the top in quality as well, and can be used right… read more or left handed. Some may say it is too pricey, but once in your hand and in use, you will think it is worth every penny.
