Adventure, Refined. Legally Friendly. Built for Urban Explorers Everywhere.

The Spyderco Metropolitan Lightweight is purpose-built for urban explorers and global travelers who value performance, discretion, and legal peace of mind. Compact yet capable, it blends one-hand opening, clip carry convenience, and a non-locking slipjoint mechanism into a sleek, featherweight design.

With premium Bohler M390 steel and ergonomic FRN scales, the Metropolitan delivers exceptional edge retention, effortless deployment, and pocket-ready comfort — all in a socially conscious build. A textured index-finger choil adds control and safety during use. The leaf-shaped, full-flat-ground blade with a satin finish slices with precision, and the wire deep-carry clip rides low and discreet.
