About the original
The Spyderco Bug Stainless (C133P) is the smallest knife in Spyderco's lineup: a fully functional micro slip-joint folder with a flat-ground stainless steel blade and the Round Hole for one-handed opening. Spyderco was founded in 1976 in Golden, Colorado by Sal and Gail Glesser, and popularized the Round Hole opening mechanism and the pocket clip across its catalog. The Bug measures 2.5 inches closed with a 1.27-inch blade, weighs 0.4 ounces, and uses 3Cr13 stainless steel. It has been a keychain carry staple since its introduction in 2005, with the Supreme SS2026 version adding a box logo to an otherwise unchanged $35 tool.
