Spyderco Military Rex 45 Burnt Orange Sprint

Spyderco Military Rex 45 Burnt Orange Sprint

Originally created to meet the needs of deploying military personnel, the Military Model has since become one of Spyderco’s most popular and iconic knives. Its broad, full-flat-ground blade offers amazing edge geometry and cutting performance. An oversized Trademark Round Hole™ proudly identifies it as a Spyderco product and ensures swift, reliable, one-handed opening with either hand—even while wearing gloves. The blade is paired with a lightweight, open-backed handle construction that features textured G-10 scales, nested stainless steel liners, and a sturdy LinerLock mechanism.

Crucible® CPM REX 45 is a super-high-speed particle metallurgy tool steel enriched with large volumes of cobalt, tungsten, molybdenum, and vanadium. Its high cobalt content increases the steel's attainable hardness, while its vanadium carbides provide high wear resistance, fine grain size, and increased toughness. In a knife blade, these qualities yield an exceptionally sharp, long-wearing edge. REX 45 is, however, a true tool steel, so it must be maintained properly to avoid corrosion.
