IThe Lil’ Native expertly embodies the essential characteristics of Spyderco’s renowned Native model, offering a compact and easily portable gentleman’s folder. This limited-edition Sprint Run version enhances the Lil’ Native Compression Lock design with a blade made from CPM 15V, an exceptional material known for its outstanding wear resistance, making it the highest-performing cold-work tool steel available today.
The unique alloy composition includes nearly 15 per cent vanadium, resulting in a significantly high volume of vanadium carbides within its microstructure. When applied to knife blades, this translates to remarkable cutting performance and exceptional edge retention. The elite CPM 15V knives are further refined through a specialised heat-treating protocol devised by the esteemed custom knifemaker Shawn Houston.
This exceptional Sprint Run Lil’ Native retains all the key features of the standard Compression Lock model, including nested stainless steel liners, a robust Compression Lock, and a reversible deep-pocket wire clip. To signify its belonging to the CPM 15V family, it also boasts brown peel-ply-textured G-10 handle scales and features Shawn Houston’s “Triple B” logo laser-engraved on the reverse side of the blade.
