Maxamet is perfect if you’re looking for a knife with excellent edge retention and very high wear resistance, Maxamet is a “Super steel” for your knife, but it’s not a stainless steel, it has only 4% of chromium in it, so you must take the time to keep it clean. A knife with Maxamet steel is perfect for someone that needs a razor sharp knife that will hold an edge for extended periods of use and use their knife in less humid environments. A Spyderco Factory Second knife is a great way to get to know the Spyderco lineup of knives. You get a top-quality knife at a reduced priced and usually cannot tell why it is a factory second. These knives have been inspected and the issue is usually cosmetic but never sacrifices the safety of the knife. If we can identify the issue, a picture of it will be included so that you know exactly what you are getting. It is also important to point out that as a factory second the knife will have a small notch on the back of the blade near the handle. The knife will not come in a Spyderco box and there is NO WARRANTY from Spyderco.
