Spyderco Native 5 Fluted Carbon Fiber
Item #: SPC41CFFP5
$300.00
From the manufacturer:
Directly inspired by Spyderco's rare and highly collectible 40th Anniversary Knife, the Native 5 Fluted Carbon Fiber combines all the features and benefits of the iconic Native 5 platform, an ultra-high-performance CPM® S90V® stainless steel blade, and stunning fluted carbon fiber handle scales. The result is a truly extraordinary everyday carry knife with serious swagger.
The linerless scales of this knife are meticulously machined from solid carbon fiber to create a beautiful sunburst pattern that also offers a subtle non-slip texture. They are fitted with four sets of threaded stainless steel inserts that allow the attachment of a four-position pocket clip to support all possible carry preferences. Together with the knife's high-strength back lock mechanism and the blade's fully accessible Trademark Round Hole™, the versatile clip makes all aspects of the knife's carry and one-handed operation completely ambidextrous.
Not to be outdone, the blade of this knife is crafted from premium CPM S90V stainless steel. This advanced particle metallurgy steel is enriched with a high vanadium content to promote the formation of hard vanadium carbides instead of chromium carbides. This enhances the steel's wear resistance and edge retention, leaving more free chromium available to provide superior corrosion resistance.
The leaf shaped blade measures 3" and has a hardness of 59-61 Rc. Closed length measures 4". Weighs 2.7 oz. Suggested Retail $400.00.

Spyderco
In 1981, Spyderco ventured into the world of knife making by introducing their first folding knife, the C01 Worker. This knife was the first in the industry to feature a round hole in the blade design that allowed for fast, one-hand opening, now the company’s trademark, and the first to feature a pocket clip. The trademarked round hole is the most recognizable feature of a Spyderco knife and it facilitates the easy opening and closing of these knives with one hand while also offering convenient access and maximum control while opening as well as accommodating large, small or gloved hands.
Spyderco’s recognizable appearance is a result of designing ergonomically functional tools rather than applying lipstick and nylons to a pocketknife. Spyderco’s knives may look unusual, but they will never be called unusable or undependable. When you purchase a Spyderco knife, you are buying a high quality reliable cutting tool that was designed and manufactured for peak performance and ergonomic comfort.
