Spyderco's Previous page consists of Signature Knives, Value Folder Knives, USA Made Knives, Sharpeners, Salt Series Knives, Specialty Knives, Flipper Knives, Prestige Knives, Fixed Blade Knives, Culinary Knives, and Byrd Knives. The Sage 5 knife is described as a High-Performance Prestige Knife in the product description. The Sage Series, part of Spyderco's collection of knives, showcases various innovative lock mechanisms that have played a significant role in modern folding knife technology. Each knife in the series shares common design features such as a CPM S30V blade with a full-flat grind, an ergonomic handle design with a textured forefinger choil and thumb ramp, and a reversible tip-up wire clip. However, each knife in the series highlights a different lock mechanism and honors the knifemaker or designer who introduced it. Additionally, a percentage of the proceeds from every Sage Series folder sold goes to the National Alzheimer's Association in Denver, Colorado.

The Spyderco Sage 5 specifically features Spyderco's Compression Lock mechanism, which sets it apart from other knives. The Compression Lock differs from a LinerLock as the blade's tang ramp faces upward towards the handle's spine. This patented mechanism is stronger than most LinerLocks and allows for safe one-handed closing without placing fingers in the path of the edge. The Sage 5 includes skeletonized stainless steel liners within textured carbon fiber/G-10 laminate scales. Open-backed construction reduces weight and aids in cleaning, while a reversible deep-pocket wire clip allows for convenient tip-up carry on either side of the knife. With its innovative features, the Sage 5 is a versatile cutting tool suitable for various tasks.

Specifications for the Sage 5 includes being made in Taiwan, featuring a full-flat grind, a round hole for easy opening, a 3.00" blade, and an overall length of 7.17". The knife utilizes Spyderco's Compression Lock and a handle made of carbon fiber/G-10 laminate. The Sage 5 is part of the Prestige series and is priced at $159.95.

Spyderco stands by its values by offering cutting-edge innovation and high-quality products while upholding traditional values and excellent customer service. The Sage Series embodies the brand's commitment to modern folding knife technology, featuring a full-flat-ground, leaf-shaped CPM S30V blade, and an emphasis on innovative lock mechanisms. Other features such as a Full-Flat Grind, FRN Handle, SLIPIT system, and detailed specifications further demonstrate Spyderco's dedication to providing top-notch knives for its customers.
