SOLD with free 2-day priority shipping.
Tough-as-nails Citadel, out-of-production, rare, hard to find NIB. This is a wicked looking, NIB, no longer in production, black blade Spyderco automatic knife, never carried, sharpened, or displayed. This has the all black plain 3.25" edge (83mm) which I prefer over the Spyderedge. Here is a great video!

Original retail on this fine black carbonitride blade was around $275.00. If I were forced to own only one knife this would be it. The Citadel is a big, strong and very finely crafted, all black cutting tool for those requiring a tactical folding knife. Here is what the Spyderco folks say about it. "The Citadel is designed for immediate deployment and unfailing performance in the most demanding conditions. Made in the U.S.A., it features a precision-machined, textured aluminum handle that is hard anodized for durability. Available in two sizes (a 92mm blade and a 83mm blade (.35" smaller than 92mm), the Citadel represents the pinnacle of automatic knife engineering and performance. Its premium CPM S30V blades are available with a natural satin finish or with a non-reflective black carbonitride coating. Right-hand-dominant automatic blade opening Anodized, machined aluminum handle w/Bi-Directional Texturing® Left/right-hand tip-up black steel clip High-strength button-lock release Back-up safety locks button in open or closed position Screw-together construction Spine jimping Spine swedge Lanyard hole Flat (low drag) saber-ground blade -length overall: 7.75 " (197 mm) -blade length: 3.25 " (83 mm) -blade steel: CPM S30V -length closed: 4.563 " (116 mm) -cutting edge: 3.156 " (80 mm) -weight: 4.8 oz.
