C25GP Frank Centofante

Work in progress

The C25 Frank Centofante is an early Collaboration model in collaboration with famous custom knifemaker Frank Centofante. The first knives had Aluminum handles with various colors on both handle and rubber inlays. The later model was G-10 handled, but then it appears with different color in the inlaid medallion in the handles.

The first generation of the C25 bears the distinction of beeing the only Spyderco ever to contain Filework with it's Fileworked liners.
