Product Description
Spyderco Native Cheif Lightweight (C244PSBK) 4.02" CTS-BD1N Satin Drop Point Partially Serrated Blade, Black FRN Handle, Back Lock
The Native Chief, an "expanded" iteration of the iconic Spyderco Native, enhances the original design's overall length by approximately one-third whilst preserving its thin, pocket-accommodating profile. The innovative Native Chief Lightweight pushes this evolution further by substituting its G-10 scales with a lightweight, fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle for added portability.
This uniquely injection-molded handle is enriched with high-traction Bi-Directional Texturing™. Paired with its linerless make-up furthermore diminishes the knife's weight by 21 percent in contrast to its G-10 equivalent. It maintains the precise and reliable back lock mechanism while incorporating threaded inserts to offer complete customization possibilities for positioning of the four-position pocket clip.
The blade of the Native Chief Lightweight strikes balance between form and function - precision-ground from premium CTS® BD1N stainless steel ensures durability, featuring a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole™ that harmonizes perfectly with the symmetrical and utterly ambidextrous design ethos. Furthermore, it offers versatility in usage through availability in all three edge configurations.
