Spyderco Native Chief Lightweight Folding Pocket Knife with 4" CTS BD1N Steel Blade and FRN Handle - EDC Knife for Men and Women, Perfect for Hunting, Tactical, Camping - SpyderEdge - C244SBBK

An "extended" version of the timeless Spyderco Native, the Native Chief stretches the overall length of the original design by about one-third while maintaining its slim, pocket-friendly profile. The Native Chief Lightweight continues that evolution, replacing the G-10 scales with a lightweight, fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle. The injection-molded handle includes a high-traction Bi-Directional Texture pattern and its linerless construction trims the knife's weight by 21 percent compared to its G-10 counterpart. It retains the same precision-machined back lock mechanism and includes threaded inserts to allow mounting of the knife's four-position pocket clip to support left or right-side, tip-up or tip-down carry. The blade of the Native Chief Lightweight is full-flat-ground from CTS BD1N stainless steel and features a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole to complement the knife's symmetrical, completely ambidextrous design. This ultra-lightweight cutting tool is available with a tumbled blade finish and brightly finished hardware or in an all-black configuration featuring a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) blade coating and matching black-coated lock bar, clip, and hardware. Both finish options also offer a choice of either a PlainEdge, CombinationEdge, or fully serrated SpyderEdge blade. Founded in 1976, Spyderco is a leading innovator in high-performance knives, known for their signature round hole and ergonomic designs. Trusted by outdoor enthusiasts, first responders, and professionals, Spyderco uses advanced materials like CPM S30V and SPY27 steel to create durable, reliable tools.
