Spyderco C259PGY Charisma (CTS BD1N, Drop Point, Satin, FRN, Gray) Pocket Knife

The Spyderco Charisma C259PGY is an exceptionally lightweight folding knife designed by Eric Glesser, combining innovative engineering with an ultra-slim profile built for effortless everyday carry. Featuring a 2.98-inch full-flat-ground blade crafted from CTS BD1N stainless steel, the Charisma delivers an excellent balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and cutting performance. Its gray fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) handle provides a comfortable, secure grip while keeping the overall weight to an impressive 0.8 ounces, making this one of Spyderco's lightest full-size everyday carry designs.

The Charisma's ultra-thin blade measures just 0.050 inches thick, providing excellent slicing efficiency for everyday cutting tasks. Its linerless FRN handle features longitudinal grooves and a pebbled texture for enhanced traction without unnecessary bulk. A reliable back lock mechanism incorporates Spyderco's Boye Dent to help prevent accidental lock release, while the Trademark Round Hole allows convenient one-handed opening. Measuring 6.80 inches overall and just 3.82 inches closed, the Charisma is easy to carry in virtually any pocket. A reversible deep-pocket wire clip supports discreet left- or right-handed tip-up carry, completing this thoughtfully engineered American-made folding knife.
