Spyderco Grasshopper Reviews

4.7 Rating 7 Reviews

The Spyderco Grasshopper is one of the best selling UK-friendly carry knives that we sell here at Heinnie Haynes®.
Non-locking folding knives aren’t a new concept. They’ve been around for centuries without much change but continue selling among a sea of modern locking knives. The reason? While many knife buyers appreciate the traditional aspects of a non- locker, more want this type of knife because they live or work where laws prohibit carrying and using a locking pocket knife. Spyderco perceived a gap between traditional slipjoints and modern locking folders and created a product line called SLIPITS. SLIPITS offer reliable and sophisticated non-locking folders that open with one hand, have a finger choil for comfort and safety and are conveniently accessible. As the overall SLIPIT line expands, a subcategory of micro-sized SLIPITS with stainless steel handles is populating within and Spyderco calls them Bugs. The first Bug was matter-of-factly named, The Bug. Its non-locking blade is just barely over an inch long. Next up, a two-inch blade called the HoneyBee followed by the release of a larger one yet, The GrassHopper. The GrassHopper’s size is closest to that of a true penknife with its blade over two-inches. Its PlainEdge 8Cr13mov stainless steel blade stays open when you’re cutting, held by resistant pressure at the knife’s pivot area. GrassHopper handles are chamfered with no squared-off edges to dig or bite into a gripping hand. The handle is also stainless steel with a laser engraved Spyderco bug and enough blank area for a small amount of engraving or customization as jewelry or a gift item. Handle lanyard-hole welcomes a chain for wear around a neck or a keychain.

“Lovely little knife. Small and very slim for your pocket. No fuss metal handle. It's supposed to be one-handed opening but I couldn't do it. Big hands / fingers and not a lot of purchase.Very sharp!”

“I got this knife as an everyday carry knife, it is discreet and easy to use, the blade is fantastic and easy to really shapen to a fine edge, it holds the edge well too.The small size is deceptive as it is similar to my SAK but far easier to carry”

“I had filled out of love with Spyderco after the back spring on my Kiwi failed rendering the knife useless. After much deliberation I decided to finally replace it with the comparatively small Grasshopper and I haven't been disappointed. Its a tiny sharp work of art. I plan to have my name engraved on it like I did my Kiwi. If you're undecided , or thinking of buying a small knife that is legal in the UK this is the best value for money out there.”

“I keep this on my keyring. Very useful when opening packages or removing clothes tags, something which I do on a weekly basis. The larger size makes it easier to open than a Bug is.”
