Spyderco Native 5 Overview
CPM S90V Stainless Steel Blade
The brightly polished blade is full-flat ground from CPM S90V, an advanced powder metallurgy stainless steel enriched with vanadium. CPM S90V's high vanadium content favors the formation of hard vanadium carbides instead of chromium carbides, increasing the steel's wear resistance and edge-holding properties while leaving additional free chromium available to enhance corrosion resistance.
Liners, Scales, and Clip
Full stainless steel liners that are meticulously machined on their edges to create a decorative filework pattern reminiscent of the finest custom knives. In timeless style, the
dovetailed handle scales are crafted from amber-colored bone and beautifully polished to a high luster. To fulfill the knife's identity as a Spyderco CLIPIT design, the handle includes a polished hourglass clip configured for right-side, tip-up carry.
Back Lock
The blade is mated to the knife's handle by a precision-machined back lock mechanism that is one of the defining characteristics of the Native 5's design.
Damascus Steel Bolsters
Beginning with solid billets of 1084 and 15N20 tool steel, knife makers Ed and Martin Schemp's
incredibly complex process involves steps including forging, grinding, water
jet cutting, welding, stress relieving, forge welding, and drawing to finished bars. The
Damascus bars are then precision cut to reveal a contrasting checkerboard pattern of
36 squares, each containing Spyderco's signature "bug" logo.
Display Box
The box is custom-crafted from solid African Padauk, an exotic reddish-orange
hardwood that naturally darkens with time to a deep brown. Laser engraved with Spyderco's 50th anniversary logo, this stunning box is the perfect display for this extraordinary and highly collectible tribute to Spyderco's history and the
knifemaker's art.
