Spyderco Pattada - Collection Selection No.8

The Spyderco Pattada, part of the company's Ethnic Line, is a sort of gentleman's folding knife. It is large and capable while refined, and at the tip, a bit precious. The blade is made from N690CO and the takes on the traditional Sardinian knife's unique profile (which suits Spyderco well) and the handle is beautifully contoured G10 with a liner lock. No doubt this is a capable and useful knife but I really only got it for the beauty of the thing itself and the connection I have to its ethnic heritage.
