Sleek Design, Razor-Sharp Blade, and Comfortable Handle

Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2023

Style: Steel BladeVerified Purchase

I recently purchased the Spyderco Yojimbo 2 Tactical Knife, and I am thoroughly impressed with its sleek design, razor-sharp blade, and comfortable handle. This knife has exceeded my expectations in terms of both quality and functionality.

The blade is incredibly sharp straight out of the box and has held its edge well even after regular use. The handle is ergonomically designed, providing a secure and comfortable grip. I've found that the knife is well-balanced and easy to maneuver, making it a great choice for tactical and everyday carry use.

My only minor concern is that even after being oiled, the knife doesn't open as easily as I've become accustomed to with other Spyderco products. However, this is a small issue that doesn't detract from the overall quality and performance of the knife.

Overall, I highly recommend the Spyderco Yojimbo 2 Tactical Knife to anyone in need of a reliable and high-quality knife. Its sleek design, sharp blade, and comfortable handle make it a top choice for both tactical and everyday use.

This knife, the Youjimbo 2, has been long in high demand. When I finally found it in-stock on Amazon about 2 weeks ago, I snapped it up.

I have to say that, although I am not an expert on this, this has to be one of the best folding pocket knives ever designed. I read articles about it before and wanted it. When I received the knife, I found that the fit and finish were flawless, the blade as sharp as a razor, and the feel was that of a very solid and sturdy tool. The steel used is listed out there as one of the highest-rated stainless tool steels.

I had a minor "problem." The opening action was a bit stiff. I tried working the pivot a number of times, then tried a high-grade lubricant. Still stiff. I then looked up the issue on the internet and found that tactical knives were in fact adjusted in stiffness by their pivot bolts. The screws or bolts used on the Yojimbo 2 are those which take star-shaped wrenches, like the Apple iPhone, but much larger. Having had an iPhone with an issue, I had a set of such wrenches on hand.

I set to with the wrench, once I had the correct size wrench in hand, and in a few seconds, loosened the pivot bolt by about 5 degrees. I tried it out. Still too stiff, but better. I then took it another 5 degrees and now it is perfect. I am sure that by making it tight, this served the manufacturer well in controlling tolerance and making tightening unnecessary for the user. Tightening can strip bolts, so it is safer to loosen. So this serves the user well.

The clip mounting holes allowed me to place the clip in the correct position, so that I, a lefty, could carry it securely tip-up in my left pocket. I would prefer the clip to be black in color instead of the uncolored stainless, but that is not a flaw, just a preference.

The size and quality of this knife make it a possibility as a compact survival knife, one you can trust, although the very sharp tip is a bit delicate in that role. Overall, I am very happy.

As an Amazon Prime customer, the shipping is fast and efficient for me, with few delays. I am quite happy with Amazon on this as well.

I've always thought wharncliffe grinds looked goofy like a knife unsure of what it was. On a whim, I purchased this Yojimbo 2 as it was designed and endorsed by the Martial Blade Concepts expert himself touted as the ultimate self defense knife.
After receiving, I realized why I had my previous apprehensions and precisely what this knife is.
Every single angle and aspect of this YJ2 knife was methodically crafted for a reason. The tapering of the handle is so your hand locks down around it while holding, the curve at the top of the blade is for your thumb to apply pressure for an energy transfer to the blade. And the blade itself.. razor sharp and powerful can't even begin to quantify. For this 3.5" feels like a 5" blade in your hand, I wholly expect this would output a bowie knife twice it's size. Just a phenomenal work of craftsmanship.
That being said, I had to hone a tiny factory burr off the very tip of the blade after it came in, something no one else would have noticed. Still, I've had two factory benchmades that wouldn't stand to cut with the force this blade will. It's by far my favorite knife in the collection now and I am sold on the ways of the Wharncliffe design.

There is a reason these tend to be sold out. It's an amazing knife.

Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2015

Style: Steel BladeVerified Purchase

It was between this and the Spyderco P'kal. I prefer the application and theory of the reverse blade-in grip of the P'kal. Don't get me wrong I will have them both but started with this one and I have to say that I love this knife so much I may just buy another one for collecting purposes. We all saw what happened with the original Yojimbo. Michael Janich and Spyderco hits a home-run with this knife. Knife came out of the box razor sharp, and the missing patch of arm hair can attest to it. Blade was well centered, not perfect, but very very close. Action is buttery smooth. Easy to open with a flick of the thumb, finger, Spyder drop, or a swift flick of the wrist. Blade lockup with the compression lock is rock solid. No blade play in any direction. Compression lock releases easily for one handed closing. Knife is slim and carries without notice. It's not a deep carry clip if that bugs you. Occasionally, the compression lock will pinch your hand while you are opening it but it is a rare occurrence for me. Ergonomics are great. The only thing I would change ergonomically is rounding the peaks of the finger-grooves slightly. I find them a little sharp in the recommended grip. However, that is more than likely a result of hand size, as I have smaller hands, than a reflection of the knife. This an amazing and capable knife. Next on my list the Spyderco P'kal.

Excelente navaja

Style: Steel BladeVerified Purchase

Esta hoja fue diseñado para cortar músculos con rapidez y exactitud, siendo catalogada como la navaja de defensa mas eficiente del mercado en la última década. Pueden observarse decenas de vídeos en Youtube de como aprender a manejarla en caso de necesidad. No la recomiendo para el día a día, para eso hay otros modelos, ya que su punta es muy delicada. Una maravilla de juguete, no se arrepentirán.
