Spyderco has done something pretty interesting with their Mule Team($20) line of blades. The Mule Team series is a set of knives that are crafted using experimental and exotic steels to allow knife lovers to test them out and use something that’s not typically offered by the industry. Spyderco purposely leaves these blades handleless to give an aspect of DIY for enthusiasts. Holes have been drilled to allow for custom handles or cord wrapping. The Mule Team series is released every year in limited runs of about 600 pieces. Each run is made with a different type of steel. For this particular run 9CR18MO steel was forged into the blade above.
