Gayle Bradley is known for his highly utilitarian designs and he has teamed up with Spyderco once again to bring us the Advocate Flipper. The blade is full flat ground CPM M4 for some of the best wear resistance and slicing performance you can get. Don't forget to put some oil on the blade though, CPM M4 is a high speed tool steel and not stainless.
The blade deploys fast and smooth on a bearing pivot whether you choose the Roundhole of the flipper to deploy it. A hardened steel lock face makes the titanium frame lock operate very smoothly and keeps lock up rock solid over the long haul. The titanium frame is finished in a fine orange peel texture that add a little grip and a lot of looks. The Advocate is a piece of pure performance that doesn't sacrifice on the aesthetics. Carries tip-up, left or right hand for ambidextrous use. Check it out now at GPKnives.com.
