Spyderco Sage 5 Salt Folding Knife Black G-10 Black TiCN CPM MagnaCut Blade SPC123GPBKMCBK

At the heart of the Sage 5 Salt is a 3" full-flat-ground blade crafted from CPM MagnaCut, a next-generation particle metallurgy stainless steel engineered specifically for high-end knife performance. MagnaCut has quickly earned a reputation for delivering an extraordinary balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance that few steels can rival. Whether you're carrying it in wet climates, marine environments, or demanding daily conditions, this blade is designed to stay sharp, resist corrosion, and perform under pressure. Its non-reflective titanium carbonitride coating adds another layer of durability while reducing glare and enhancing the knife’s discreet all-black appearance.

Spyderco’s signature Compression Lock gives the Sage 5 outstanding lock strength and smooth one-handed operation, making deployment and closing fast, secure, and intuitive. The open-backed handle construction helps reduce weight and simplifies cleaning, especially after exposure to moisture, grit, or debris. Nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners reinforce the structure without adding unnecessary bulk, allowing the knife to maintain a lightweight carry at just 3.2 ounces.

The black G-10 handle scales are designed for maximum traction and control in difficult conditions. Combining a peel-ply texture with Spyderco’s aggressively machined Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture pattern, the handle locks securely into the hand even when wet, cold, or gloved. The ergonomic shape provides a natural, comfortable grip that excels during extended cutting tasks while maintaining a slim profile suited for everyday carry.

Measuring 7.13" overall with a closed length of 4.17" and a blade thickness of .118", the Sage 5 Salt balances compact carry with dependable cutting capability. A reversible deep-pocket wire clip supports left or right-side tip-up carry, keeping the knife discreet, accessible, and ready for immediate deployment. Matching black-coated liners, hardware, and clip complete the knife’s unified tactical aesthetic.

Made in Taiwan with Spyderco’s renowned fit and finish, the Sage 5 Salt is a high-performance folder built for users who demand elite cutting capability, corrosion resistance, and reliable handling in a streamlined everyday carry package.
