Product Description

The Spyderco Native 5 50th Anniversary Sprint Run is a once-in-a-generation collector's piece — a handcrafted American folder that fuses the Native 5's legendary daily-carry DNA with museum-grade materials built to mark five decades of Spyderco's knife-making legacy.

The CPM S90V blade is the cutting core of this anniversary build. Developed exclusively for Spyderco through Crucible's particle metallurgy process, CPM S90V delivers edge retention that outlasts nearly every other production steel available — maintaining a razor working edge through extended use without the brittleness trade-off of higher-carbide alternatives. The 3.00" drop point with a full-flat grind and satin finish maximizes the steel's slicing geometry, producing clean, effortless cuts across every daily task. At 0.13" thick, the blade is stout enough for demanding work while staying nimble for precision cutting.

• Blade: CPM S90V, full-flat grind, drop point profile, satin finish, plain edge — world-class edge retention in a geometry built for precision slicing
• Handle: Highly polished amber-colored bone scales on full stainless steel liners with decorative edge filework; Mosaic Damascus bolsters hand-forged by master blacksmiths Ed and Martin Schempp in a checkerboard Spyderco "bug" logo pattern — over 1,200 hours of artisan work
• Deployment / Lock: Spyderco Round Hole thumb opener, Lockback mechanism — one of the strongest folding lock designs available, fully ambidextrous to operate, locks solid with no blade play
• Carry: 4.50 oz, tip-up right-hand pocket clip with polished hourglass profile; ships in a custom African Padauk hardwood display box laser-engraved with Spyderco's 50th anniversary logo
