The C265 SpyMyto is inspired by the Myto design from the Italian knife company LionSTEEL. It is Spyderco's third Flash Batch design, which is similar to a Sprintrun, but instead of utilizing a pre-existing model, uses a never before produced model that will not be produced in that exact configuration again.

C265 SpyMyto

"The SpyMyto™ is a truly unique folding knife that was inspired by the lionSTEEL® Myto™ and is produced by lionSTEEL exclusively for Spyderco. Its hollow-ground, drop-point blade is crafted from M398—an enhanced version of Böhler-Uddeholm’s M390 capable of achieving extremely high hardness and wear resistance. In addition to a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole, the blade features a removable flipper opener, ball bearing pivot washers, and a beautifully radiused spine. The SpyMyto’s handle consists of a linerless green Micarta scale on one side and a solid titanium scale on the other. The latter forms the foundation of the knife’s stout Reeve Integral Lock (R.I.L.) mechanism, which includes a hardened steel interface/overtravel stop. Both scales have painstakingly machined textured chamfers and are joined by a carbon fiber backspacer. A reversible deep-pocket clip mounts to the butt end of the handle to provide left or right-side tip-up carry. This stunning knife is being released as a Flash Batch—a distinctive, one-of-a-kind expression of a model that has not been previously released. Every knife will be individually serialized with discreetly placed laser engraving."[1]
