Product Description

The Spyderco Salt 2 Wharncliffe C88FSWCGR2 is the line-cutting specialist in the compact Salt 2 lineup — LC200N nitrogen-alloyed steel in a 3.00-inch Wharncliffe profile with SpyderEdge full serrations, Green FRN handle, and back lock, delivering a blade geometry that maximizes cutting edge contact with rope, line, and webbing in a corrosion-immune compact folder suited to marine, fishing, and rescue carry at $10 less than the plain edge Salt 2.

The LC200N blade is a nitrogen-alloyed stainless steel with outstanding corrosion resistance approaching H-1's saltwater immunity and meaningfully better edge retention than H-1 — the right steel for a compact marine carry folder that will be stored wet, exposed to saltwater, and used in sustained marine cutting tasks without daily maintenance. The Wharncliffe blade profile is the defining geometric feature of the C88FSWCGR2 — a blade with a straight edge that runs the full usable length of the blade, paired with a flat spine that drops steeply and linearly to meet the tip at the edge line, creating a blade with no belly curve whatsoever and a tip that meets the edge at or near the centerline of the handle. Where a conventional drop point or sheepsfoot blade has some degree of curvature, the Wharncliffe's completely straight edge maximizes the blade's contact with flat surfaces and the material being cut — in rope cutting, webbing cutting, and line cutting applications, the Wharncliffe's straight edge geometry maintains full edge contact across the entire cutting surface in a single controlled stroke, producing more efficient cuts than curved profiles that contact the material at only one point along the arc. Combined with SpyderEdge's full serration pattern, the Wharncliffe geometry creates the most efficient push-cutting and draw-cutting geometry for rope and line in the compact Salt 2 platform — serrations across a straight edge contact more of the cut material simultaneously than serrations on a curved belly. The Green FRN handle is the field-appropriate marine carry color, chemically inert in saltwater and UV exposure.

• Blade: LC200N nitrogen-alloyed stainless, Wharncliffe profile, satin finish, SpyderEdge full serrated — outstanding corrosion resistance approaching H-1; Wharncliffe straight edge maximizes cutting surface contact in rope, line, and webbing cutting; SpyderEdge serrations combined with straight edge geometry produce maximum push-cutting efficiency
• Handle: Green FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), textured bidirectional grip, compact Salt 2 profile — chemically inert and unaffected by saltwater, UV, and marine biological exposure; Green is the field-appropriate marine carry color suited to fishing, coastal, and outdoor environments
• Deployment / Lock: Back Lock via Spyderco Round Hole — back lock provides reliable blade security in the compact Salt 2 platform; 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 — same carry weight and format as the plain edge Salt 2; Wharncliffe SpyderEdge configuration at $10 less than the plain edge drop point variant

Ideal For

Fishermen, marine rescue carry buyers, and coastal EDC users who want the most efficient line-cutting geometry in a compact LC200N Salt folder — the C88FSWCGR2's Wharncliffe SpyderEdge combination maximizes cutting edge contact with rope and line in push-cutting applications, making it the most specialized line-cutting configuration in the compact Salt 2 lineup. Buyers choosing between the Wharncliffe C88FSWCGR2 and the drop point plain edge C88FPGR2 who prioritize line-cutting efficiency over general-purpose slicing — the Wharncliffe SpyderEdge at $10 less than the plain edge drop point is the right choice for buyers whose primary salt folder use case is cutting line, rope, and cordage rather than general marine utility cutting; the plain edge drop point is right for buyers who want a general-purpose marine EDC with conventional sharpening ease. Boaters, kayakers, and divers who carry a compact Salt folder as a secondary emergency line cutter and want the geometry most optimized for that single task — the Wharncliffe SpyderEdge C88FSWCGR2 is the most purpose-built line-cutting configuration in the compact Salt 2 platform at the most accessible price point in the LC200N Salt 2 lineup.

LC200N nitrogen-alloyed stainless with outstanding marine corrosion resistance, a Wharncliffe straight edge that maximizes cutting surface contact combined with SpyderEdge serrations that cut rope and line faster in push-cutting applications, Green FRN that is chemically inert in any marine environment, and the back lock in Spyderco's compact Salt 2 platform — the Spyderco Salt 2 Wharncliffe C88FSWCGR2 is the line-cutting specialist compact marine Salt folder at $130.
