Product Description
The Spyderco Lil' Native™ C230GPCBL takes the iconic ergonomics of the Native 5 and shrinks them into a highly capable, "fifth-pocket" friendly design. This elite edition is upgraded with CPM® SPY27®, a specialized stainless steel developed exclusively for Spyderco by Crucible Industries to provide a superior balance of toughness, corrosion resistance, and a "sticky sharp" edge that is remarkably easy to maintain.
The 2.42" leaf-shaped blade features a full-flat grind for precision slicing geometry, making it a versatile tool for everyday utility tasks. The handle is outfitted with Cobalt Blue peel-ply textured G-10 scales, the signature color of Spyderco’s SPY27 family. Despite its small size, the Lil' Native is built for hard work, featuring nested stainless steel liners and the high-strength Compression Lock® mechanism. A reversible deep-pocket wire clip ensures the knife sits low and discrete for ambidextrous, tip-up carry.
