In early 2013 the Transportation Security Administration announced a plan to once again allow knives on airplanes. Although the plan was later withdrawn, Spyderco was ready for it with a unique new non-locking design called the Roadie. In essence a highly evolved penknife, the Roadie's full flat-ground sheepfoot style blade features a new Double-Dent for fingernail-free easy two-handed opening. An improved notched-joint mechanism holds the blade open during use and is backed by a subtle index-finger choil to prevent accidental closure. Contoured fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) scales and strategically placed jimping (grooves) on the choil and spine enable this knife to perform well beyond its size.
