Spyderco | Moran DrPoint - Black Blade
Bill Moran is heralded as the father of modern Damascus steel forging and founder of the American Bladesmith's Society. During his retirement years, Bill Moran collaborated with Spyderco on a fixed blade design that continues as a top seller even now in 2011, four-years after Bill's passing in 2007.
Categorized as a mid-sized blade, the Moran is a true workhorse designed for cutting performance with a drop-point VG-10 stainless steel blade coated in non-reflective black carbon nitride. The blade is flat-ground with an arcing belly, ending with just enough tip-point for detailed cutting and caping. The FRN (fiberglass reinforced nylon) handle is inlayed on both sides with Krayton insets offering a rubbery texture that eliminates slipping while keeping the knife secure in the hand, even if that hand is wet, cold or gloved.

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.
