Story

The Spyderco Smock is a collaboration with Kevin Smock, a custom knife maker and designer. This Spyderco model is based on Smock's SK23 custom, which was the first knife design to utilize the button release compression lock. Smock licensed the use of the compression lock mechanism from Spyderco, then iterated on its design to include a button on the show-side scale that actuates the lock. The button actuated compression lock is unique because it combines the exceptional strength and longevity of the compression lock with the easy, fidgety actuation of a button lock. Fun fact, typically the left side liner contains the lockbar (leaf spring), but the Smock features a mirrored lock configuration, since the lock is intended to be actuated by the thumb rather than index finger. 

For more about the Smock, check out Kevin Smock’s Designer Insight video posted by Spyderco on YouTube.

Materials

For the handle scales, this distributor exclusive variant features satin aluminum scales, an unusual choice among Spyderco knives, especially for the Taichung facility. I believe these exclusives may actually be the first use of aluminum in the Spyderco Taichung facility, which is widely acclaimed as one of the best production knife factories in the world due to their stellar engineering and craftsmanship.

The blade is crafted from CPM Cruwear (also stylized Cru-Wear or CruWear), which is a very tough AND wear resistant semi-stainless American tool steel made by Crucible Industries of Geddes, NY and rolled by Niagara Specialty Metals of Akron, NY. Cruwear earned a cult-like following among the knife user community for its very well balanced characteristics and ease of sharpening, especially with Spyderco’s acclaimed heat treatment. Dr. Larrin Thomas of Knife Steel Nerds (and Magnacut inventor) rates this steel as an 8/10 in toughness, 5/10 in edge retention, and 5.5/10 in corrosion resistance (“stainless" classification starts at 6/10). This combination of properties means it will stand up to harder use while staying sharp, and with just a little mindfulness, corrosion won’t be an issue. The blade is hollow ground.

This distinctive all-satin Smock variant also features uncoated hardware, the new pivot design, a polished silver clip, and beautiful satin blade. Overall, the premium materials and fine craftsmanship of this knife come together to make it a uniquely high performance and intensely collectible option from Spyderco that has a place in any collection or pocket.

Disassembly Notes

Check out our maintenance video here!

Also, if you are new to the Spyderco Smock design, please note that it has a second detent added to it to avoid classification as a gravity knife, which would be illegal in most places and a potential safety hazard. This second ball detent basically stops the blade from falling open when the button is pressed (accidentally or intentionally) which actuates the lock. However, many fans of the Smock, including myself, enjoy the option to open the blade with the button because it makes the knife more fun to fidget with. 

The second detent is quite easy to remove during disassembly. It is simply a tiny coil spring pressing a small ball bearing against the tang of the blade, but it is not captive, so chances are high that when you go to take the knife apart (such as to install the skiff bearings upgrade set), the ball (and sometimes coil spring) will fall out, land on the floor, and roll into an unreachable or undetectable spot. Therefore, we advise some caution when disassembling your Smock and using quality screw bits (T8 and T6) and a takedown mat. Overall, we rate the Smock as moderately easy to dis/reassemble; easier than a PM2 but more difficult than a Native. Also, Spyderco will continue to honor their warranty on the original components of their knives long as they are dis/reassembled properly and therefore mechanically functional.

well made, nicely built, fast and everything fits firmly
Color: Gray
Sleek and well made, heavier than my old one, as it seems better built in every way. I love the flush power buttons, they don't get accidentally pushed in because of the firmness of the buttons, not hard, just not overly easy like some cheaper hubs. The color is nice looking, the lights are subtle but easily identify each port and the main thing, it's fast. My old USB hub was decidedly slow and often under-powered. It did not always work with some demanding devices. But as soon as I plugged this in, all my devices were recognized and worked correctly. This was a great buy.

Had some questions and needed to test it, here's the verdict!
Color: Black
No pictures, but I wished to get this review out as soon as possible because I'm very happy with my purchase. My last USB hub from aother brand broke immediately as soon as I got it which is why I wanted to purchase this as an "upgrade" for the higher voltage and more port options. Firstly I really appreciate that they gave both a USB 3.0 to USB-C and a USB-C to USB-C cable for the power depending on what type of port you have on your computer. The extra cable is always appreciated. I had a bunch of questions stemming from other reviews so I tested them. When you press a button nearby any port, the light goes on. When you hold it, it goes off. When the light is on, it powered my external drive, and when I hold-pressed it off, the drive on my computer disappeared as it should when no power is going to it. I'm glad that works perfectly. Also, it takes 16 seconds to recognize my 8TB drive. It seems a tiny bit long, but not too long, I'm pretty patient. For the SD and Micro SD card slot, there is no on and off power buttons. But they DO work. This was important for me as it was one of the reasons I bought it. The quick charging also works as intended. Also, I wondered what size it was- it's 8.75in long, 2in width, and a measly 0.65in heightwise. Every cord included is slightly larger than 3ft so there should be no problems with connecting it, though maybe it's too many wires for some. One thing I was concerned about was that a reviewer said the ports were very tight, and they are. I thought I was gonna break the ports by connecting a USB, but thankfully it didn't break. I don't know how realiable that is over time, though I imagine because of the buttons, the idea is to connect them once and if you want to not use it, to simply press the button to turn them off. So I think I'll do that once I get all my USBs set into place. If it breaks any port in that process down the line, I'll update my review. And based on the manual, here are the speeds: USB 3.0 & USB C - Max 5GB/sec data speed, Max 5V/1.5A power SD and Micro SD Slots - Read 50-104MB/sec, Write 30-80MB/sec (Subject to memory card speed and computer USB ports) USB QC Ports - No speed or power given Total power supply: Output DC 12V/7.5A (Input AC 100V~240V / 50Hz~60Hz / 2A) The power supply is a big brick LOL. But I appreciate the power, thanks. It's very easy to use overall, I just plug something in, turn the light on, expect it to work and it does. Besides it taking great force to plug a USB in, everything else is exactly what I wanted. Glad I bought this. Edit, a month or two later: The USB ports all still are working, but I noticed some external drives don't have enough power to work, even with the 8V, so I'm docking a point. I should be able to plug at least one in with a few other things connected, but this makes it a little less functional for my usage.

Just what I needed
Color: Black
Never given!give 5 stars. But, this got it because exceeded what I was expecting. Purchased because new computer slots were inconvenient and more new devices are using usb ports and having powered ports was essential. Have used for several months and keep finding more things needing it. It was more than I expected/needed at the time .But, was designed for growth I was not expecting. Getting excellent connections, speed, and reliability even though I’ve nearly doubled the devices I planned on using. To be clear the system I connected to is all about performance and top of the line hardware. I was a performance engineer in a previous position and am very picky with this system setup. I’ve tested the hardware several times tuning things and it’s never the bottleneck. The original purchase was intended as a short term fix when I needed something yesterday and as stated b4 it has earned a place in my permanent setup. Would buy again and would explore other offerings by manufacture.

Very useful USB hub
Color: Black
Works as described. This thing has more inputs than most will ever need. I thought it would be big and bulky but it doesn't take up much space at all. It's super lightweight, except for the power supply but even then, it's not that heavy. I'm currently using some of the USB 3.2 ports and 1 of the USB charging ports with zero issues and now I'm able to plug more devices without fear of my PC struggling to communicate with them all. It's a little pricey compared to other USB hubs but I feel it's totally worth it.
