The Spyderco Tasman Salt 2 C106SBK2 is the H-1 SpyderEdge sheepsfoot Tasman Salt 2 in Black FRN — H-1 nitrogen-alloyed steel with near-absolute saltwater corrosion immunity in a 2.80-inch sheepsfoot SpyderEdge blade, Black FRN handle, and back lock, delivering H-1's absolute corrosion ceiling with SpyderEdge's push-cutting line-cutting capability in the sheepsfoot's no-piercing-tip safety geometry, in the most carry-neutral Black FRN colorway at the same $115 as the Yellow Tasman Salt 2 variants — the right Tasman Salt 2 for buyers who want H-1's near-carbon-free corrosion immunity over H-2 and Black carry-neutral carry over Yellow high-visibility.

The H-1 blade is a nitrogen-alloyed precipitation-hardened steel that is virtually carbon-free — functionally immune to corrosion in saltwater, marine, and high-humidity environments where every other steel, including H-2 and LC200N, will eventually show surface oxidation under continuous salt exposure. In the Tasman Salt 2 platform, H-1 is the right steel specification when the carry environment demands the absolute ceiling of corrosion immunity — a Tasman Salt 2 that genuinely lives in a PFD pocket, on dive gear, or stored wet for extended periods without any maintenance needs H-1's near-carbon-free absolute corrosion immunity rather than H-2's excellent-but-not-absolute resistance. The SpyderEdge full serration pattern on the sheepsfoot profile delivers the same push-cutting line-cutting efficiency as the Yellow C106SYL2 in H-1 — SpyderEdge serrations across the straight sheepsfoot edge contact rope, line, and webbing simultaneously across the full blade length in a push cut, maximizing cutting efficiency without the piercing tip that could catch on netting or injure a person in close-quarters rescue situations. The Black FRN handle is the most carry-neutral colorway in the Tasman Salt 2 lineup — carries without visual signature in any pocket or gear context, suited to buyers who want H-1's absolute corrosion ceiling and SpyderEdge sheepsfoot line-cutting capability without the high-visibility Yellow that reads as dedicated marine safety gear. At $115 the C106SBK2 delivers H-1's absolute corrosion ceiling at the same price as the H-2 Yellow variants — the premium corrosion specification in the most subdued Tasman Salt 2 colorway at no price premium over H-2.

• Blade: H-1 nitrogen-alloyed steel, sheepsfoot profile, satin finish, SpyderEdge full serrated — virtually carbon-free nitrogen alloy with functional corrosion immunity in saltwater and marine environments; sheepsfoot no-piercing-tip eliminates accidental puncture risk; SpyderEdge maximizes push-cut line-cutting efficiency across the straight sheepsfoot edge; absolute corrosion ceiling over H-2 variants
• Handle: Black FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), textured bidirectional grip, Tasman Salt 2 profile — chemically inert and unaffected by saltwater, UV, and marine biological exposure; Black is the most carry-neutral Tasman Salt 2 colorway; carries without visual signature in any carry context
• 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: Compact Tasman Salt 2 profile, tip-up right-hand clip, Black FRN — H-1 SpyderEdge sheepsfoot at $115; H-1's absolute corrosion ceiling at the same price as the H-2 Yellow variants

Ideal For

Marine, diving, and PFD carry buyers who want H-1's absolute corrosion ceiling in the Tasman Salt 2's sheepsfoot SpyderEdge configuration in the most carry-neutral Black FRN colorway — the C106SBK2 at $115 delivers H-1's near-carbon-free rust immunity that H-2 cannot match under continuous saltwater exposure, SpyderEdge's aggressive push-cut line-cutting, and the sheepsfoot's no-tip safety geometry in a Black FRN build that carries without the visual signature of Yellow rescue gear, at the same price as the H-2 Yellow variants. Buyers choosing among the three Tasman Salt 2 variants who want H-1's absolute corrosion ceiling over H-2's excellent-but-not-absolute resistance and Black carry-neutral over Yellow high-visibility — the C106SBK2 delivers the highest corrosion immunity specification in the Tasman Salt 2 lineup in the most subdued colorway at identical price to the H-2 Yellow variants. Divers, sailors, and offshore carry buyers who carry their marine folder as a general EDC in both marine and non-marine contexts and want H-1's absolute corrosion immunity without the visual identity of Yellow high-visibility safety gear — the C106SBK2's Black FRN reads as a general working knife in any carry context while performing at the absolute ceiling of marine corrosion resistance.

H-1 steel with near-absolute saltwater corrosion immunity that H-2 cannot match under continuous exposure, SpyderEdge serrations across a sheepsfoot straight edge for maximum push-cut line-cutting efficiency without a piercing tip, Black FRN that carries without visual signature in any environment — the Spyderco Tasman Salt 2 C106SBK2 is the H-1 SpyderEdge sheepsfoot Tasman Salt 2 in Black at $115.
