Featuring a 4.02” drop point blade made from CTS-BD1N steel, this knife delivers razor-sharp precision, excellent edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The satin finish adds a touch of refinement while minimizing reflective glare—a subtle but practical detail.
Spyderco’s signature round thumb hole offers effortless, one-handed blade deployment. Combined with a rock-solid backlock mechanism, you’re guaranteed a secure lock-up every time. From daily utility tasks to heavy-duty jobs, the Native Chief Lightweight is always ready to perform.
The handle is crafted from lightweight black FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), offering the perfect blend of strength, comfort, and grip. The textured surface ensures a firm hold, even in wet conditions. Weighing in at just 3.1 oz. and measuring 5.08” closed, this knife feels barely there in your pocket but delivers big when it’s called into action.
For maximum versatility, the Native Chief Lightweight features a four-position pocket clip, allowing for tip-up, tip-down, left-hand, or right-hand carry. It’s a fully ambidextrous design that’s all about user convenience. A lanyard hole adds yet another carry option, giving you the freedom to attach it to your gear, backpack, or keychain.
At 9.05” overall with a .12” blade thickness, the Native Chief Lightweight is built to handle more than just daily cutting tasks. Its larger size offers increased cutting power, while its lightweight construction ensures it’s never a burden to carry. Proudly made in the USA, this knife represents the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
The Spyderco Native Chief Lightweight Satin Black is more than just a practical tool—it’s a symbol of American ingenuity and excellence. It’s perfect for outdoorsmen, first responders, or anyone who demands a little more from their everyday carry.
