The Spyderco Native Chief™ takes the highly evolved, time-tested form of the iconic Native® model and extends it by approximately one-third, resulting in a longer, even more capable cutting tool.
This elite Sprint Run® version elevates the design to new heights of performance, featuring a blade crafted from CPM® 15V®. The sophisticated alloy composition of this steel generates an exceptionally high volume of small, ultra-hard vanadium carbides.
Optimised with a special heat-treating protocol developed by custom knifemaker Shawn Houston, the blade delivers remarkable cutting performance and exceptional edge retention. This knife boasts a full-flat-ground blade that fully utilises these properties and showcases Shawn Houston’s “Triple B” logo, laser-etched on the reverse side.
Presented in a linerless handle that features brown peel-ply-textured G-10 scales, a high-strength back lock mechanism, a stainless steel backspacer, and a fully configurable four-position pocket clip.
