To make the Resilience even more affordable and versatile, Spyderco introduced a lightweight version with fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) scales. By injection molding the scales, they were able to incorporate their signature Bi-Directional Texture pattern for enhanced grip security and succeeded in reducing the overall weight of the knife by almost 12 percent compared to the G10 version. Tough and resistant to most chemicals and solvents, FRN can be easily molded in practically any color imaginable, opening the door to a broad range of possibilities in the future.
For tactical end users concerned with the reflective properties of a satin-finished blade, they also added a black-bladed version with a black oxide blade coating and black-coated liners, clip, and handle hardware. Both the satin and black-bladed versions of the Resilience Lightweight are available with a choice of PlainEdge or partially serrated CombinationEdge blade.
