About Spyderco
Spyderco is one of the leaders of the global knife industry and has long collaborated with renowned designers.
Character and philosophy
The Spyderco Serge Panchenko Dog Tag embodies a philosophy of maximum functionality in an absolutely minimalist form. Serge Panchenko’s design is built on the idea that a knife can be a fully capable tool without taking up space or drawing attention.
The CPM S30V stainless steel blade offers a balanced ratio of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The black blade finish reinforces its discreet, technical look while also protecting the surface during everyday use.
The carbon fiber body is extremely thin and lightweight, yet strong enough for common EDC tasks. The slipjoint construction without a lock emphasizes control, simplicity, and legal carry suitability in many environments.
The Dog Tag is designed as a discreet EDC tool that you always have with you — without even noticing it until you need it.
Key benefits
- Ultra-thin and extremely lightweight design
- Carbon fiber – strength and a premium look
- CPM S30V – a balanced EDC steel

Possible limitations
- No lock – requires careful control during use
- Very short blade – intended only for light tasks

Maintenance and care
Clean and dry the blade after use. Regularly check the blade action in the knife body. Wipe the carbon body with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
To maintain the precise geometry of the small blade, we recommend using sharpening systems with fixed angle guidance for safe and even sharpening.
A very suitable choice is the Spyderco Tri-Angle Sharpmaker Complete Sharpening System 204MF, which allows gentle edge maintenance without the risk of damaging the small cutting edge.
