Spyderco Native 5 Lightweight Black - Plain Blade

Since its original release in 1997, the Native has been a mainstay of the Spyderco product line and a shining example of our American-made quality and innovation.

This knife ergonomic handle features a solid stainless steel back spacer and textured G-10 scales. This linerless construction style reduces weight, while ensuring impressive structural strength and solid support for the knife’s highly refined back lock mechanism. The product of extensive research, development, and testing, the Native 5’s back lock redefines the state of the art in the engineering and execution of this elegantly simple mechanism. It offers increased strength, an exceptionally smooth action, an improved self-close function, and even greater resistance to wear and tear than previous versions.
