Spyderco Stretch 2 XL: Overhyped or Just Right?

Some knives get all the hype—but does the Spyderco Stretch 2 XL actually deliver? 🤔 In this review, I put it through its paces and give you my unfiltered take—no sugarcoating.

While many swear by this knife, I found it a bit too flimsy-feeling for my taste. Does that make it a bad knife? Not necessarily—but before you pull the trigger, you’ll want to hear me out. I break down the ergonomics, blade steel, lock strength, and overall feel of this lightweight slicer to see if it’s truly worth the hype.

✔️ How the Spyderco Stretch 2 XL performs for EDC, self-defense, and hard use
✔️ The good, the bad, and where it falls short
✔️ Is it worth adding to your collection?
✔️ How it stacks up against other Spyderco knives
