    SPYDERCO’S Lil TEMPERANCE 3
    2023

    SPYDERCO’S Lil TEMPERANCE 3 The Lil Temperance 3 features a CPM S30V, 3-


    inch leaf blade with a gorgeous flat grind. Its
    By: Sal Palma 0.157-inch blade thickness qualifies this 3rd
    generation as a robust working knife and very
    capable edged weapon.

    The knife is perfectly balanced and sits


    comfortably in the hand. I found its overall
    length to be perfect for just about any use; its
    blade length and handle length ratio is perfect.
    Overall length is a hair over 7 inches with a
    Spyderco’s original Temperance was an
    handle of about 4.5 inches. The G10 grip scales
    impressive, fixed blade offering, that superbly
    are mounted on a stainless-steel liner and
    played the role of utilitarian and defensive tool.
    feature a generous finger coil and excellent
    In 2001, the Temperance’s original design texture, so purchase is near perfect.
    objectives carried forward to a muscular folder
    which Spyderco branded as Lil Temperance.
    Development progressed resulting in a Lil
    Temperance 2. These combat-oriented leaf
    blade folders were discontinued in 2004.

    In 2017, Spyderco made the decision to


    resuscitate this exceptional folder, introducing
    the Lil Temperance 3, the subject of my review.

    The Lil Temperance 3 can only be described as a


    top-of-the-line EDC pocket folder. It may be
    named Lil, but rest assured this folder is mighty.

    Spyderco went with their traditional hourglass Manufacturer Specifications:


    clip design, which can be relocated using the
    provided mounting points. You can carry the Lil • Overall Length: 7.30" (185mm)
    Temperance 3 right or left side and tip up or tip • Blade Length: 2.90" (74mm)
    • Steel: CPM S30V
    down. You can’t ask for a more flexible EDC
    • Closed Length: 4.40" (112mm)
    folder.
    • Edge Length: 2.90" (74mm)
    • Weight: 4.0oz (113g)
    • Blade Thickness: 0.157" (4.0mm)
    • Handle: G-10
    • Clip Position: Ambidextrous
    • Tip Carry Position: 4-position.
    • Lock Type: Compression
    • Grind: Full-Flat
    • Sheath: N/A
    • Origin: Japan

    Spyderco uses a compression lock, which was


    developed by Spyderco and provide a rock-solid
    lock-up, I normally don’t do prying with a pocket
    folder but this knife is up to the task.

    If you’re doing heavy cutting, you’ll like the


    jimping on the blade’s thumb rest, it enhances
    the already excellent grip ergonomics.

    The Lil Temperance 3’s axis is smooth, and you


    can deploy the blade easily and quickly should
    the need arise.

    Spyderco’s Lil Temperance 3 is an exceptional


    pocket folder in every respect. Its build quality
    and design make this EDC folder an excellent
    defensive tool or utilitarian tool. Unfortunately,
    as of this writing, Spyderco has discontinued the
    knife, but you should be able to pick one up at
    any number of online retailers. It’s worth the
    effort if you’re looking for an EDC knife that will
    serve you well whether you’re a plumber or CEO.
