The Spyderco Shaman Plain Black is a masterfully crafted everyday carry knife, blending rugged performance with sophisticated design. Proudly made in the USA, this manual folder is designed to tackle any challenge, whether you’re out in the field or simply handling day-to-day tasks. With its robust materials and thoughtful features, the Shaman is a must-have for those who demand both reliability and style from their EDC.
The Shaman’s centerpiece is its 3.58-inch drop point blade, made from premium CPM S30V stainless steel. This high-performance steel is renowned for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, making it a favorite among knife enthusiasts. The plain edge excels at slicing, dicing, and precision tasks, while the .14-inch blade thickness ensures durability for heavy-duty jobs. Finished with a sleek black DLCX coating, the blade is both visually striking and protected against wear and reflection, making it as durable as it is discreet.
Spyderco’s signature round thumb hole provides smooth and effortless one-handed opening, a hallmark of their innovative design. Paired with the robust compression lock, the Shaman offers secure blade lockup and easy operation. The compression lock is not only reliable but also keeps your fingers safely away from the blade during closing, ensuring confidence with every use.
The black G-10 handle is designed with ergonomics and durability in mind. G-10 is a lightweight yet incredibly tough material that resists moisture and wear, making it ideal for an everyday carry knife. Its textured finish provides a comfortable, non-slip grip, ensuring precise handling even in challenging conditions. The handle’s contoured shape enhances comfort during extended use, while the lanyard hole offers additional carry customization.
At 8.25 inches overall when open and weighing 5.2 ounces, the Shaman balances heft and portability perfectly. It’s substantial enough for serious tasks yet comfortable enough to carry every day. The four-position pocket clip allows for tip-up or tip-down carry on either side, ensuring accessibility and convenience for both left- and right-handed users.
When closed, the Shaman measures 4.67 inches, making it compact enough to slip into a pocket while remaining ready for action. This American-made masterpiece is designed to be your reliable companion, no matter where life takes you.
Available at the world’s largest knife store, Smoky Mountain Knife Works, the Spyderco Shaman Plain Black is a celebration of precision engineering and timeless craftsmanship. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or new to EDC, this knife delivers unparalleled performance and rugged style.
The Spyderco Shaman Plain Black isn’t just a knife—it’s a statement of quality, durability, and American ingenuity. From its premium blade steel to its ergonomic design and versatile carry options, this knife is built to exceed expectations. If you’re looking for a tool that’s as reliable as it is refined, the Shaman is ready to rise to the occasion.
