Key points

• His first Spyderco collaboration, the PITS short for Pie in the Sky Read's forum name on British knife forums, redefined the form of this genre
• The PITS 2 takes that evolution a step further with a truly unique non-locking mechanism that consists of two integral spring arms machined into the handle scales
• The forward end of these arms, which supports the blade pivot, flexes as the blade is opened to provide pressure for its notched-joint mechanism to bear against the stop pin
• Meticulously machined from solid 6AL-4V titanium, the matte-finished handle scales are paired with a full-flat-ground, satin-finished blade crafted from Bohler-Uddeholm's M398 particle metallurgy stainless steel
