Product Description
The Spyderco Pathway Lightweight is a 3.7 oz fixed blade designed by professional kayak fisherman Lance Clinton. Inspired by Spyderco's original Waterway, it was built for use around the water and handles a wide range of outdoor chores.
9Cr18MoV is a high-carbon stainless steel that balances toughness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention with easy field sharpening. That makes it a practical choice for a knife that will see wet conditions, fish cleaning, and camp work. The 4.43" drop-point blade is full-flat ground with low-friction geometry for efficient slicing, and its acute point handles detail work like cleaning fish or cutting line.
- Blade: 4.43" 9Cr18MoV drop point, full-flat grind, satin finish, 0.125" thick, 4.25" plain cutting edge, full tang. 9.50" overall.
- Handle: Black FRN scales with Spyderco's Bi-Directional Texture for grip in wet conditions, plus a large lanyard hole for lanyards and safety lines. 4.07" handle length.
- Sheath: Snap-fit black FRN sheath with a configurable G-Clip mount for carry in multiple positions.
- Carry: 3.7 oz knife, 5.5 oz with sheath, light enough for a PFD, pack, or belt.
Ideal for: kayak and shore anglers who need a dependable fixed blade near the water; hikers and campers who want a lightweight do-all outdoor knife; and paddlers who want a knife that can ride on a PFD or pack strap.
