Native Chief Lightweight
Native Chief Lightweight
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 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. It is also available in a choice of all three edge configurations.
Care and Maintenance
Care and Maintenance
To keep your Spyderco knife performing at its best, clean the blade with warm soapy water and a soft cloth after use. For tougher grime, gently scrub with a soft toothbrush. If debris accumulates, use compressed air to clear the pivot and hard-to-reach areas. Ensure your knife is completely dry before applying a drop of lubricant to the pivot for smooth operation. Avoid disassembling your knife unless absolutely necessary, and always follow proper reassembly practices. Store your knife in a dry place and avoid prolonged contact with moisture.
