Description: This is the first knife designed for Spyderco by the famous knifemaker Michael Walker, inventor of the liner lock. This unique Spyderco has the disctinction of being Swiss Made, in the same factory that produces the very well-made Klotzli Knives, of which many are also designed by Michael Walker. This knife came in three different handle versions, with the non Carbon Fiber later versions all made in Seki City Japan. FRN Versions have been marketed as both the C22 and the C37.
