The Native 5 is the latest generation in a long, successful line of high performance knives. Named the Native, because it is made in the USA. This Native 5 is built to Spyderco's highest standards, features incredible blade steel and striking good looks, showcased by its cobalt blue scales, a trademark of knives made with SPY27. The 75mm (2.95") Leaf shaped blade features a full flat grind for unparalleled edge geometry which allows for effortless slicing.
In close cooperation with Crucible® Industries, Spyderco have developed CPM SPY27—a particle metallurgy stainless steel containing a proprietary mix of alloys, including vanadium, molybdenum, niobium, nitrogen, and cobalt.
This remarkable composition, enhanced by the amplifying effects of cobalt and the state-of-the-art Crucible Particle Metallurgy process, is produced exclusively for Spyderco and will be featured in select USA-made models. Every knife made with this steel will also have a distinctive cobalt-blue handle colour that highlights its elite pedigree.
