C12GS C12GS Civilian SpyderEdge Black G-10 Folding KnifeThe development of the Spyderco C12GS Civilian SpyderEdge Black G-10 Folding Knife came to fruition as a needs-based project for covert officers in undercover missions for a specialized task force subdivision of US law enforcement. Law enforcement officers were often thrust into mission-based situations that, while plain-clothed, disallowed them to carry a firearm and hence rendered defenseless with the exception of a knife. Most of the undercover agents had no formal martial art training, so Spyderco C12GS Civilian SpyderEdge Black G-10 was created to fulfill a last-resort protection need. If the officers were to bear only a knife, it had better pack a lot of punch. Spyderco Civilian has a backward "S" blade that functions much like an eagle's talon, and the tip is tapered to a paper-thin profile. The deep curve and the ample "belly" of the The Civilian's blade is designed to slice with maximum efficiency and is fully SpyderEdged. This knife has a specific task to defend and is not utilitarian. The Civilian is not your everyday knife and design to disable an assailant. Created to maximize grip, the handle is a black G-10 with a dual position clip for heads-up or heads-down carriage. The Civilian's protection potential is, quite simply, the best there is.Spyderco C12GS Specs
