In 1981, Sal Glesser and his wife Gail revolutionized the knife industry. In the small town of Golden, not far from Colorado’s capital Denver, they founded the knife brand Spyderco, which is now known worldwide. To this day, Spyderco stands out as a true pioneer, constantly developing and testing new materials and mechanisms. Over the years, Spyderco has been able to make a name for itself worldwide as an innovative manufacturer of high-quality pocket knives and fixed knives and is now the outfitter of numerous police and military forces around the world. High-quality, modern materials are used in the precise manufacture of the knives. Low manufacturing tolerances and high demands on one’s own work inevitably lead to absolutely reliable and practical knives that do not show any weaknesses even in tough use.
