NATIVE CHIEF™ LIGHTWEIGHT CPM® SPY27®

Developed in close cooperation with Crucible® Industries, CPM® SPY27® is a cobalt-enriched stainless steel that enhances the time-tested chemistry of Japanese VG-10 with the Crucible® Particle Metallurgy (CPM) process. This state-of-the-art method wrings maximum performance out of the steel by reducing alloy segregation and ensuring a fine, homogenous microstructure. Proprietary to Spyderco, this high-performance blade material is renowned for its ability to get “sticky sharp,” while balancing edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. This Native Chief™ Lightweight proudly showcases this elite steel in its full-flat-ground blade and further highlights it with a signature cobalt-blue FRN handle.
