Product Description
The Spyderco Salt 2 Wharncliffe C88SWCYL2 is the H-2 SpyderEdge Wharncliffe line-cutting Salt 2 — H-2 nitrogen-alloyed steel with outstanding marine corrosion resistance in a 2.90-inch Wharncliffe profile with SpyderEdge full serrations, Yellow FRN handle, and back lock, combining the Wharncliffe's straight-edge geometry that maximizes cutting surface contact with SpyderEdge's serrations that cut rope, line, and cordage faster in push-cutting applications — the most efficient compact line-cutting Salt 2 configuration in Yellow high-visibility at $110.
The H-2 blade is a modified nitrogen-alloyed stainless steel with outstanding corrosion resistance in saltwater and marine environments approaching H-1's near-absolute immunity — delivering the Salt designation's core promise in a compact marine carry folder that will be stored wet and exposed to saltwater without daily maintenance. The SpyderEdge full serration pattern on the Wharncliffe profile creates the most geometrically efficient line-cutting configuration in the compact Salt 2 lineup — where the LC200N Wharncliffe SpyderEdge C88FSWCGR2 delivers the same geometry in Green FRN at $130, the C88SWCYL2 delivers H-2 corrosion resistance and SpyderEdge Wharncliffe geometry in the highest-visibility Yellow FRN at $20 less. The Wharncliffe's completely straight edge is the most efficient base geometry for SpyderEdge serrations in line-cutting applications — the straight edge maintains full contact with rope, line, and webbing simultaneously across the entire blade length in a push cut, meaning every SpyderEdge serration point contacts the material at once rather than progressively along a belly curve. Combined with SpyderEdge's curved serration pattern, the Wharncliffe geometry creates the most aggressive push-cutting line-cutting action available in the compact Salt 2 format. The Yellow FRN handle is the highest-visibility Salt series color — located instantly in any marine or water rescue environment — and the compact Salt 2 profile at approximately 2.60 oz fits any PFD pocket, front pocket, or tackle box carry format.
- Blade: H-2 nitrogen-alloyed stainless, Wharncliffe profile, satin finish, SpyderEdge full serrated — outstanding marine corrosion resistance approaching H-1; Wharncliffe straight edge maximizes simultaneous cutting contact with rope and line across full blade length; SpyderEdge serrations maximize cutting efficiency in push-cutting applications
- Handle: Yellow FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), textured bidirectional grip, compact Salt 2 profile — chemically inert and unaffected by saltwater, UV, and marine biological exposure; Yellow is the highest-visibility Salt series color; compact Salt 2 profile at approximately 2.60 oz
- Deployment / Lock: Back Lock via Spyderco Round Hole — back lock provides reliable blade security; ambidextrous Round Hole allows one-hand opening from any grip position including with wet or gloved hands
- Carry: Approximately 2.60 oz, tip-up right-hand clip, compact Salt 2 profile — H-2 SpyderEdge Wharncliffe at $110; same price as the H-1 plain Wharncliffe C88PWCYL2, $20 less than the LC200N SpyderEdge Wharncliffe C88FSWCGR2
Ideal For
Marine carry, fishing, and water rescue buyers who want the most efficient compact line-cutting Salt 2 configuration in high-visibility Yellow — the C88SWCYL2 delivers the Wharncliffe SpyderEdge combination that maximizes push-cutting line and rope efficiency in H-2 corrosion-immune Yellow FRN at $110, the most affordable Wharncliffe SpyderEdge Salt 2 in the lineup. Buyers choosing between the Yellow SpyderEdge Wharncliffe C88SWCYL2 and the Yellow plain edge Wharncliffe C88PWCYL2 at the same $110 who want line-cutting serration performance over conventional sharpening ease — both deliver H-series corrosion resistance in Yellow FRN Wharncliffe at the same price; the C88SWCYL2 SpyderEdge cuts rope and cordage faster in push-cutting while the C88PWCYL2 plain edge sharpens on any conventional system. Buyers who want the LC200N Wharncliffe SpyderEdge geometry in Yellow FRN at $20 less — the C88SWCYL2 delivers the same Wharncliffe SpyderEdge line-cutting configuration as the Green LC200N C88FSWCGR2 in the highest-visibility Yellow colorway at $110, trading LC200N's edge retention advantage for H-2's absolute price accessibility and Yellow's maximum visibility.
H-2 nitrogen-alloyed stainless with outstanding marine corrosion resistance, SpyderEdge serrations on a Wharncliffe straight edge that contacts rope and line simultaneously across the full blade length for maximum push-cutting efficiency, Yellow FRN found instantly in any marine environment in the compact Salt 2 format — the Spyderco Salt 2 Wharncliffe C88SWCYL2 is the H-2 SpyderEdge Wharncliffe compact marine line-cutter at $110.
