Byrd CaraCara 2 Rescue Lightweight Folding Pocket Knife, SpyderEdge | 8.66" Overall Length, 3.91" 8Cr13MoV Steel Blade, FRN Handle, Back Lock, Hollow Grind

The CC-2 Rescue is my favorite knife of the Byrd line. Heavy-duty sheep-foot blade design retains its full spine thickness all the way to the tip. Hollow-ground serrated edge is razor sharp out of the box. Action is smooth, lockup is solid. Both can be adjusted to the operator's preference with pivot and lock-bar screws. Lightweight FRN handles provide excellent grip and control of the cutting edge. With a bit of practice, easily deploys into hammer or reverse hammer grips, by wrist flick only, without touching thumb to blade. The thumb-hole opens even more deployment possibilities. The CC-2 Rescue is rugged, light weight, heavy duty, low-maintenance, sharp and dependable. For those who can handle the size, it is an excellent EDC choice. For those who prefer a more compact EDC option, a smaller Meadowlark-sized Rescue model is also available. Many people say the Byrd makes good knives for the money. I reject that insulting disclaimer. These knives are not designed to be worn as jewelry with your tuxedo. They are intended to be used, day in and day out. Within that context, they are excellent performers, regardless the cost.

Great serrated knife for cutting "rope" or lines, as we call them in the river industry. Comfortable, light weight but sturdy, and good value.

Absolutely awesome. I'm in construction. I've always been a serrated kind of guy. This Byrd was the last of my searching. This thing's a beast. I use it as a saw more often than not, and I can't kill the damn thing. As an out-and-about knife, i carry a Benchmade. Im not a cheapskate, I just don't want to have to worry about punishing a knife at work. Buy'm cheap, beat them for 6 mos and buy another. I need'm solid, sharp and thin. This thing just kills it in all 3 categories. It's impossible to dull! Don't blow this decision on flash and bang, buy yourself a beast. You can give it to your son in 6 mos when you buy another. These pics are after the equivalent of 100,000 miles. Hard miles. I always have another, new one on standby at home, i just don't need it! I can't wait to use it, but the last one keeps on killin'.

I purchased this to use as a seatbelt cutter in my car in case of emergency. The knife seems tailored to an application like this with a blunt tip and serrated blade for cutting through thick, tough material. It cuts through boxes pretty well, seems built well enough, is easy to open with one hand, and is lightweight. My only complaint is that the fiberglass/plastic handle does not 'feel' as strong or sturdy in your grip as I would like. It would be nice if it had more metal backing behind the handle to give it some sturdiness. Don't get me wrong, I can squeeze down really tight on the handle and cut through some thick stacks of boxes, but it just doesn't feel as rock solid as other knives I own... but then it would probably cost more than $20, so for a less-expensive knife, it fits the bill and intended application, so I would buy it again.

I already have a Cara Cara 2 with a fine edge blade and after a year I still love it. Recently I was looking for an affordable knife with a fully serrated edge. I was amazed at just how few of them there are on the market. Of the ones I found most were on Spydercos that were out of the price range I was looking for, this is going to be a hard use knife and even though Spyderco knives are tough, they are so nice I tend to pamper them too much, what can I say, maybe I am sick in the head. Anyways I saw this Cara Cara 2 which essentially is a low cost Spyderco and I am very happy with it. There are lots of versions of serrated blades, and many i think are either designed to tear or in many cases just designed to look cool. Spyderco / Byrd serrated edges actually cut. They make fantastic slicing blades that cut clean, smooth, and rarely need resharpening. Most knives today either come with a fine edge or a combo edge, but a fully serrated edge for repeated slicing tasks, there's no substitute, wish there were more out there but for now this one suits me fine.

Move to this edc from a smith and Wesson which was heavy stainless. Was not expecting the weight to be this drastically light. Sharp blade and gets the job done wherever I need it. My business is truck and heavy equipment mechanic. Owned for a while now and the blade is sturdy, no rust, and a good size that’s not cumbersome. So far so good.

Absolute beast. Better than anything else you'll find in this price range. If you work on the water can't beat Spyderedge.

Was very surprised how thin the knife is and with a great texture grip the blade is nice and beefy made out of chromo-moly vanadium super sharp right out of the box I like that the pocket clip is good and sturdy you have 4 ways to mount the clip and it has a lanyard hole right through the clip and you can put a 550 parachute cord thru with out any problem making a real nice lanyard for your knife designed by Spyderco but made in China I'm very impressed and if you lose it like I did with one of my expensive knifes I wont be all heart broke a great all around work knife I pack it everywhere I go!

La uso como navaja de rescate y emergencias, tanto en mar como en tierra. Super recomendada. Corte impresionante. Relación calidad/precio magnífica.

Es gibt eigentlich nicht viel mehr als in der Überschrift zu schreiben. Ich sammle Messer, habe auch einige von Spyderco und Byrd, deshalb habe ich die Messer im direkten Vergleich, abgesehen von dem Klingenstahl und den Herstellungsland gibt es keine großen Unterschiede. Ich hatte, als ich im Einsatz war das Spyderco Military dabei, im Personenschutz erst das Police und nach der Gesetzesänderung in England den UK PEN. Ich habe im Laufe der Jahrzehnte einige Messer verschlissen und verloren, dass ging irgendwann ins Geld. Als Spyderco mit Byrd an den Start ging, hatte ich keine Not die Messer auszuprobieren, Chinastahl ist nicht schlechter als andere Stähle. Was man gut daran sehen kann, dass auch andere namhafte Messerhersteller in China produzieren lassen. Warum also jetzt das Cara 2 Rescue? Zum einen führt es einer meiner Freunde seit einigen Monaten im Dienst (Zoll) und ist sehr zufrieden und außerdem gibt es in der Qualität, für den Preis nichts vergleichbares. Kurzum, sauber verarbeitet, liegt gut in der Hand, bei mir (ich habe Handschuhgröße 8) tatsächlich auch mit Handschuhen. Und der Preis mit etwas über 30€ ist eigentlich unschlagbar. Ich hatte das Cara 2 Rescue mit dem Cara 2 zusammen bestellt, weil der Preis so günstig war, auf das Cara 2 warte ich jetzt noch, da ist die Lieferzeit etwas länger. Ich kann hier eine klare Kaufempfehlung aussprechen. Übrigens, aufgrund der Klingenform fällt es nicht zwangsläufig unter Paragraph 42 Waffengesetz, informiert euch aber bitte über euer zuständiges Landeskriminalamt (Niedersachsen und Bremen erlauben das tragen wenn ein Bedürfnis nachgewiesen werden kann) bevor es Ärger gibt. 😉

Todo al 100% lo utilizo cómo herramienta en mi trabajo .

Ottimo sotto tutti gli aspetti

Der Versand war zügig und die Verpackung war sicher. Das Messer kam unbenutzt und Neu bei mir an. Ein super Scharfes Messer das für alle möglichen Einsätze im Haus/Arbeit und Garten genutzt werden kann. Ich denke aber das, dass mitführen nicht legal ist. Auch wenn man es in dem Sinne, nicht wirklich als Stichwaffe ansehen kann. Ich persönlich benutze es nur im Haushalt oder im Garten und da macht es einen super Job. Ich bin sehr zufrieden und würde dieses Messer wieder kaufen.
