Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web
FB47 Nightstick
Designed by renowned custom knifemaker Gayle Bradley, the Nightstick is a uniquely modern take on the classic boot knife. Its flat-ground CPM S30V stainless steel blade is single edged to make it more legally friendly, but retains the traditional symmetrical bevels of this no-nonsense breed.
Smooth G-10 scales flank the handle’s full tang and integral double guard and are secured by stout tubular rivets. To support a wide range of carry positions and keep the knife poised for quick access, the Nightstick comes complete with a custom-molded Boltaron® sheath with a versatile G-Clip™ mount.[1]
Variations
The FB47 Nightstick is made in Taiwan and features:
- a Spear Point Blade
- polished G-10 handle scales
- lanyard hole in the handle
