Spyderco C165GP2 - Autonomy 2

The Autonomy 2 takes all the groundbreaking features of the original Autonomy automatic knife, which was developed to meet the demanding needs of U.S. Coast Guard rescue swimmers, and incorporates them into a design optimized for utilitarian use. Its ergonomic, open-backed handle is built with full stainless steel liners flanked by textured G-10 scales. The easily indexed oversized firing button includes a sliding safety to prevent unintentional activation and extends through the opposite-side liner to maximize lock strength. The Autonomy 2’s blade is full-flat ground from LC200N—a nitrogen-enriched alloy that is extremely corrosion resistant. Its iconic leaf-shaped profile provides a keen, slightly curved cutting edge and an acute, utilitarian point. Like the original, the auto-opening blade is powered by a corrosion-resistant coil spring contained within a removable module. This patented feature allows the module and spring to be easily removed with the tool in Spyderco’s spring replacement kit without disassembling the entire knife.
