'''C272 Essenza'''

"''The Essenza is an elegantly simple folding knife design based on the Riccardo Gobbato (aka Raven Knives Design) CHNOPS. Its sleek aluminum handle is precision machined to comfortably accommodate all hand sizes while expressing exceptional visual style. The interior of the anodized handle is recessed to house a stainless steel liner that forms the foundation of the knife’s sturdy LinerLock mechanism. On the business end, the Essenza’s blade is crafted from Böhler-Uddeholm’s N690Co stainless steel and features a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole for quick, reliable one-handed deployment with either hand. The flat- ground blade is beautifully satin finished and has a radiused spine that adds both an extra touch of elegance and enhanced comfort during use. To allow convenient but exceptionally discreet carry, the Essenza includes a deep-pocket clip that is reversible for left or right-side tip-up carry.''"<ref name="current catalog">The C272 Essenza in [https://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details/C272ALBK/Essenza-trade-/2643 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref>
