Developed in close collaboration with Crucible® Industries, CPM® SPY27® is cobalt-enriched stainless steel that enhances the time-tested chemistry of Japanese VG-10 with the Crucible Particle Metallurgy (CPM) technique.
This state-of-the-art process wrings maximum performance out of the steel by reducing alloy segregation and ensuring a fine, homogenous microstructure. Proprietary to Spyderco, this high-performance blade material is well-known for its ability to get “sticky sharp” while balancing edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance.
This Spyderco Native Chief Lightweight proudly showcases this elite steel in its full-flat-ground blade and highlights it with a signature cobalt-blue FRN handle.
