Native Chief Lightweight – W-DLC / CombinationEdge / Black FRN / CTS BD1N

An “extended” version of the timeless Spyderco Native, the Native Chief stretches the overall length of the original design by about one third while maintaining its slim, pocket-friendly profile. The all-new Native Chief Lightweight continues that evolution, replacing its G-10 scales with a lightweight, fiberglass reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle. The injection-molded handle includes high-traction Bi-Directional Texturing and its linerless construction trims the knife’s weight by 21 percent compared to its G-10 counterpart. It retains the same precision-machined back lock mechanism and includes four sets of threaded inserts to allow fully configurable mounting of the knife’s four-position pocket clip. The blade of the Native Chief Lightweight is full-flat-ground from CTS BD1N stainless steel and features a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole to complement the knife’s symmetrical, completely ambidextrous design.

The Native Chief Lightweight’s remarkable balance of light weight and full-service cutting performance make it ideal for tactical applications. To make it even better suited to that role, this expression of it adds a non-reflective Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating to the CTS BD1N stainless steel blade and matching black coatings to the lock bar, clip, and other handle hardware. The all-black Native Chief Lightweight is an exceptional synthesis of low profile and high performance..
