Spyderco C41PBN15V5 Native 5 - CPM-15V Blade - Brown Lightweight Handle - SPRINT RUN
Spyderco's Native 5 is the result of years of evolution and refinement of the popular Native model. It expresses the time-tested size, shape, and ergonomics of the original design with the benefit of state-of-the-art materials and a highly refined back lock mechanism that represents the pinnacle of strength, precision, and ease of operation.
This elite Sprint Run expression of the Native 5 Lightweight proudly features a blade crafted from CPM-15V, an extraordinary material that offers the highest wear resistance of any cold-work tool steel available today. Containing almost 15 percent vanadium, its unique alloy composition creates an exceptionally high volume of vanadium carbides in its microstructure. In knife blades, this translates to breathtaking cutting performance and edge retention. Spyderco’s limited-edition family of CPM-15V knives is further enhanced by a specialized heat-treating protocol developed by acclaimed custom knifemaker Shawn Houston. This Sprint Run expression of the Native 5 Lightweight faithfully includes all the signature elements of this design, including a high-strength back lock mechanism and a four-position pocket clip. To clearly distinguish it as a member of the CPM-15V family, its FRN handle is injection molded in a distinctive brown color and Shawn Houston’s “Triple B” logo is laser engraved on the reverse side of the full-flat-ground blade.
