Spyderco C152GPIVD Chaparral - Damasteel Blade - Ivory G-10 Handle - Back Lock

The Chaparral family has traditionally focused on highlighting unique handle materials and treatments. This stunning new addition to the series helps usher in a new era of sophistication by showcasing a blade crafted from breathtaking Damasteel DS93X Grabak. Manufactured in Sweden using Damasteel’s proprietary powder metallurgy Damascus process, this remarkable material combines two different hardenable knife steel grades to offer both corrosion resistance and superior strength. Named for a worm that ate the roots of Norse mythology’s Tree of Life, Grabak’s chaotic swirling pattern replicates the wings and fire of ancient Norse dragons. The FFG (full-flat-ground) blade of this Chaparral captures that spirit, revealing the stunning intricacy of this complex pattern. It is further highlighted by a linerless handle crafted with ivory G-10 scales, a stainless steel backspacer, and a sturdy back lock mechanism. A deep-pocket wire clip completes the package, providing discreet left or right side tip-up carry and making all aspects of this incredibly refined folder completely ambidextrous.
