Petzl Spatha Knife

Item #PTZ0057 | 40 in Stock
2 Star Rating

Not best suited for climbing

By Ranked #1026 - Climbing Accessories and Training October 21, 2003

The Petzl Spatha Knife (small) has a unique and handy concept with its carabiner hole and circular ridge that is used to open the knife. Despite Petzl's claims, I find the knife difficult and dangerous to open one handed, and it is even more difficult to try this with a carabiner in the hole. A neat knife, but there are better one-handed openers for climbing.
