Spyderco Byrd Meadowlark Rescue 2

From Spyderco's affordable BYRD line.

Emergency responders, EMTs, ranchers and river guides usually favor and purchase round tipped blades because they can’t poke or puncture inflatable watercraft, livestock or people. The nature of these professions places their workers in unpredictable places and situations where cutting without worry about puncturing or poking provides peace of mind.

The Byrd Line’s Meadowlark Rescue has a serrated Sheepfoot, safety shaped 8Cr13Mov stainless steel blade. The blade is hollow-ground, plain edge for sliding safely under rope, seatbelts or clothing and offer the highest level cutting performance.

Ergonomic comfort is equally important as cutting ability in a rescue knife, so the fiberglass reinforced nylon handles are Bi-Directionally Textured and have jimping above the Comet Shaped Hole and along the finger choil.

Features a four-way clip that carries: right/lefthand, tip-up/tip-down. A half-moon of steel removed from the locking lever (called a David Boye Dent) lessens the chance of gripping the knife tightly enough during use to inadvertently unlock the blade. Safe and smart.
