The Temperance, one of Spyderco’s earliest fixed-blade models crafted by co-founder Sal Glesser, makes a triumphant return in this exclusive Sprint Run edition. Now reimagined with a sleek gray fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle, this knife features a 4.46" full-flat-ground PlainEdge blade forged from CPM-CruWear steel. Known for its extraordinary toughness and wear resistance, CruWear is refined through Crucible Particle Metallurgy (CPM) technology, which creates a fine, uniform grain structure for lasting performance.
True to the original design, the Temperance offers an ergonomic, molded FRN handle with bilateral “dimples” for a comfortable and controlled grip. Paired with a custom-molded Boltaron sheath featuring a versatile G-Clip, this model is ready for rugged use or display.
