An ultralight lockback that disappears in the pocket at under an ounce.
The Charisma is an Eric Glesser design built for people who want a real knife without the bulk. The blade is CTS BD1N, a nitrogen stainless that sharpens easily and resists rust, and it rides in a linerless black FRN handle that keeps the whole knife around 0.8 ounces.
It runs a back lock, which is about as time-tested and drama-free as locks get, and the full flat grind makes it a strong slicer for its size. This is the kind of knife you forget you are carrying until you need it.

Who it is for
If you like a slim gentleman's carry or just want something light for dress clothes and long days, the Charisma fits. It is small without feeling like a toy.
Why this one stands out
A featherweight EDC from Golden that still gives you a locking blade and a steel worth carrying.
We stock the Charisma because it is made by Spyderco in Colorado, not overseas.
Not at all what i expect from Spyderco. Flimsy and not very sharp. Been buying and carrying Spyderco knives 25+ years, first time I’ve been disappointed. Quality not representative of price.
