Spyderco's Chaparral series celebrates the diverse range of handle materials and treatments, elegantly presenting them in a refined gentleman's folder format. The latest addition to this esteemed collection features precision-machined scales made from Red "Dark Matter" Fatcarbon Carbon Fibre.
Manufactured by fatcarbon® Materials in Lithuania, the "Dark Matter" composite sheets are produced using recycled carbon fibre materials, biobased epoxy resin, and organic pigments. These materials are subjected to high pressure and heat, resulting in an incredibly robust, lightweight, and chemical-resistant substance that boasts a stunningly beautiful and intricate appearance.
The exquisite scales of this knife complement the Chaparral's established design features, which include a full-flat-ground, satin-finished CTS XHP stainless steel blade, a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole for ambidextrous one-handed opening, a dependable back lock mechanism, and a deep-pocket wire clip that is reversible for discreet left- or right-side tip-up carry.
A remarkable combination of style and functionality, the Chaparral Red Fatcarbon Carbon Fibre truly embodies cutting-edge design with class.
