The Spyderco Native 5 Lightweight C41PBK5 delivers premium steel performance in an ultralight package built for daily carry. This 2.95-inch folding knife combines CPM S35VN stainless steel with fiber-reinforced nylon construction to create a blade that maintains its edge while weighing just 2.5 ounces. The spear point geometry provides exceptional piercing capability and control for precision cutting tasks.
What Makes This Different
