The Spyderco Ladybug 3 Salt CLYLS3 is the compact H-1 SpyderEdge keychain Salt folder — H-1 nitrogen-alloyed steel with Spyderco's full serration pattern in a 1.94-inch drop point blade, Yellow FRN handle, and back lock in Spyderco's most compact production folder format, delivering H-1's near-absolute saltwater corrosion immunity with SpyderEdge line-cutting capability in a conventional drop point geometry that is more daily-use versatile than the hawkbill CLYLS3HB — at the same $65 price, same H-1 corrosion immunity, same ultracompact keychain carry format.

The H-1 blade is a nitrogen-alloyed precipitation-hardened steel that is virtually carbon-free — functionally immune to corrosion in saltwater, marine, and high-humidity environments where every other steel will eventually show surface oxidation under continuous salt exposure. In the Ladybug 3 Salt platform, H-1 delivers the absolute ceiling of corrosion immunity in Spyderco's smallest production folder — a blade that cannot rust on a keychain, clipped to dive gear, or stored wet in a PFD pocket for months without any maintenance. The SpyderEdge full serration pattern on the drop point profile is the key distinction from the hawkbill CLYLS3HB — where the hawkbill's inward curve is optimized for a single pulling-cut line-cutting motion, the SpyderEdge drop point applies serrated cutting capability across a conventional forward-facing blade with a belly curve and tip that handles a broader range of tasks than the hawkbill in the ultracompact Ladybug 3 format. At 1.94 inches, the SpyderEdge blade is marginally longer than the hawkbill's 1.90 inches, and the drop point's conventional geometry handles bait prep, cutting monofilament and leader, opening packaging, and light utility cutting alongside rope and line cutting that the SpyderEdge facilitates. For buyers who want a single H-1 keychain Salt folder that covers both line cutting and general utility in the absolute minimum size format, the CLYLS3 SpyderEdge drop point is the right configuration over the hawkbill specialist. The Yellow FRN handle provides maximum marine visibility at well under 1 oz.

• Blade: H-1 nitrogen-alloyed steel, drop point profile, satin finish, SpyderEdge full serrated — virtually carbon-free nitrogen alloy with functional corrosion immunity in saltwater and marine environments; SpyderEdge cuts rope, line, and cordage faster than plain edge in push-cutting; drop point retains belly curve for broader daily utility than hawkbill geometry
• Handle: Yellow FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), textured grip, ultracompact Ladybug 3 profile — chemically inert and unaffected by saltwater, UV, and marine biological exposure; Yellow is the highest-visibility Salt series color; well under 1 oz in Spyderco's most compact production folder format
• Deployment / Lock: Back Lock via Spyderco Round Hole — back lock provides reliable blade security; Round Hole allows one-hand opening from a wide range of grip positions
• Carry: Well under 1 oz, no clip (keychain carry), ultracompact Ladybug 3 profile — the most compact H-1 SpyderEdge Salt folder in the lineup; keychain, gear bag, PFD pocket, and dive gear carry without perceptible weight

Ideal For

Divers, kayakers, sailors, and marine carry buyers who want H-1's absolute corrosion immunity with SpyderEdge line-cutting capability in the absolute minimum carry size — the CLYLS3 at $65 delivers H-1 and SpyderEdge in Spyderco's smallest production folder format, suited to keychain carry, PFD pocket, and gear-clip backup carry where the more versatile drop point geometry covers more tasks than the hawkbill specialist at identical price and weight. Buyers choosing between the CLYLS3 SpyderEdge and the CLYLS3HB hawkbill at the same $65 who want daily utility versatility over maximum pulling-cut line cutting specialization — both deliver H-1 corrosion immunity in Yellow FRN at well under 1 oz in keychain carry format; the CLYLS3 SpyderEdge drop point handles the broader range of tasks while the CLYLS3HB hawkbill maximizes the pulling-cut line-cutting geometry for dedicated rope and line cutting. Fishermen, fly anglers, and offshore carry buyers who want a dedicated H-1 serrated tippet, monofilament, and light cordage cutter in keychain format — the Ladybug 3's SpyderEdge blade handles monofilament, fluorocarbon, and light leader material with the push-cutting speed advantage of SpyderEdge serrations in the absolute minimum carry footprint.

H-1 steel that cannot rust in any saltwater environment, SpyderEdge serrations that cut rope and line faster than plain edge on a drop point that handles more daily tasks than a hawkbill, Yellow FRN found instantly in any marine environment at well under 1 oz in the smallest Salt folder Spyderco makes — the Spyderco Ladybug 3 Salt CLYLS3 is the compact H-1 SpyderEdge keychain marine carry folder at $65.
