Spyderco | Jumpmaster
Developed in close cooperation with the jumpmasters of the U.S. Army’s 82nd Airborne Division, the Spyderco Jumpmaster is a high-performance cutting tool specifically designed to support airborne operations. Jumpmasters are specially trained personnel who oversee airborne troops as they exit an aircraft during parachute operations. If a soldier hangs up and his chute fails to deploy, the jumpmaster must quickly and safely cut the static line to free the jumper.
The Jumpmaster’s fully serrated SpyderEdge cutting edge powers through webbing, rope and other fibrous materials with a vengeance, while its blunt-tipped sheepfoot profile eliminates the dangers associated with a traditional sharp point. Its blade is hollow ground from H-1—a remarkable nitrogen-based steel that is completely rustproof. To ensure strength, a deft balance, and a positive grip during high-stress situations, the Jumpmaster features a skeletonized full tang capped by injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon scales. The ergonomic shape of the handle “brackets” the user’s hand while the Bi-Directional Texture pattern of the scales ensures a positive grip in even the most demanding circumstances.
The Jumpmaster comes complete with a custom-molded Boltaron® sheath with a versatile G-Clip™ attachment that supports a full range of carry options.
Care and Maintenance
Care and Maintenance
To keep your Spyderco knife performing at its best, clean the blade with warm soapy water and a soft cloth after use. For tougher grime, gently scrub with a soft toothbrush. If debris accumulates, use compressed air to clear the pivot and hard-to-reach areas. Ensure your knife is completely dry before applying a drop of lubricant to the pivot for smooth operation. Avoid disassembling your knife unless absolutely necessary, and always follow proper reassembly practices. Store your knife in a dry place and avoid prolonged contact with moisture.
