Sports reviews of Spyderco C66PBK3 Centofante III Knife
Customer Review: fantastic knife for every day carry
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I've had this knife for a couple months now, and I absolutely love it. For the role it tries to fill, I would dare to say it is close to being the perfect knife. It combines the great materials, great workmanship, and awesome functionality characteristic of Spyderco, with a truly beautiful and intelligent design by Frank Centofante.
It is a pretty significant blade, at +3 inches, and gorgeously designed. But at 2mm thickness, with FRN handle and no steel liner locks, it is LIGHT. Folded, it is a bit longer than some comparable knives (thanks to that 3"+), but its width profile is pretty small, so it really fits nicely in the pocket without getting in the way (though mine came with the clip oriented for tip-down carry, and if you carry it in your pocket that way you're likely to run into the gimping behind the thumb hole a lot. I changed mine to tip-up, which is far more natural for me anyway, but for that you'll need a little torxx screwdriver -- buy one cheap at home depot, for some reason they're a ripoff on amazon). Anyway, the thin hollow-grind blade is simply awesome for a variety of cutting chores (that thinness makes it a great slicer), and it's great steel - VG10 - the whole construction of the knife feels very tight and solid. If you were inclined to criticize this knife, you would probably say that with the thin blade and no steel liners, it's not really up to heavy-duty use. Well, for one thing, it's just not that kind of knife. But for another, with spyderco, just trust the materials, design and workmanship a little bit, because it's all top notch. You can definitely "use" this knife. Some will criticize the FRN handle isn't textured like most of spyderco's other FRN knives, but I, for one, don't really find great purchase on that "volcano grip" surface anyway, keeping a solid grip on the knife comes down 99% to ergonomic design, and in that area the centofante 3 is excellent. And the smooth handle looks beautiful, so I like it just the way it is.
Buy this knife, you will love it!
