The Native® model has been a mainstay of Spyderco’s product line since its introduction in 1997. A shining example of the quality and affordability of our American-made products, it has steadily evolved to its current fifth-generation design and continues to define the state of the art in back lock folding knives. In its lightweight configuration, it has also joined our elite Salt® Series of cutting tools specifically designed for use in and around the water. This expression of the Native® 5 Lightweight Salt® features an ultra-corrosion-resistant LC200N blade and a signature high-visibility green handle. The satin-finished blade is full-flat ground for exceptional edge geometry and includes an index-finger choil to support a forward-positioned grip during detailed cutting tasks. Its linerless handle is injection molded from fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) and includes a non-slip Bi-Directional Texture™ pattern for a secure grip, even with wet hands. The handle houses the knife’s precision-machined back lock mechanism and also includes a four-position pocket clip that offers a choice of right or left-side, tip-up or tip-down carry. Available in both PlainEdge™ and SpyderEdge™ configurations, this lightweight tool delivers heavyweight cutting performance in a fearlessly corrosion-resistant package.
