Spyderco Native 5: innovation in a timeless design

Since its introduction in 1997, the Spyderco Native model has been a staple in the Spyderco range. With each generation, this model has evolved, resulting in the refined Native 5, launched in 2012. The latest edition of the Native collection, the Native 5 Lightweight, combines the same technical perfection with significant weight savings thanks to its glass-fibre reinforced nylon (FRN) handle. This makes the knife even lighter and more comfortable to use, without compromising on robustness or performance.

Features of the Spyderco Native 5

The Spyderco Native 5 is known for its excellent cutting performance, compact size and ergonomic design. This versatile knife is ideal for everyday use and popular among knife fans and professionals alike.

Spyderco Native 5: blade

The blade of the Native 5 is made from high-quality steels known for their balance between sharpness retention, toughness and corrosion resistance. The fully flat-ground blade offers precision and control in cutting tasks, while the design remains both robust and functional.

The Native 5's back-lock provides smooth handling and a secure lock. During opening, the spring offers slight resistance, adding to the knife's reliability and safety.

Spyderco Native 5: handle

A notable feature is the ergonomic handle with an excellent grip, made of materials such as G10 or lightweight FRN (glass-fibre reinforced nylon). The handle feels great in hand and allows prolonged use without fatigue. Thanks to the cleverly designed choil, you have an excellent, firm and forward-facing grip. This gives you maximum control while using the pocket knife. The choil is a recess at the base of the blade, just in front of the handle.

Spyderco Native: practical and reliable

The Native 5 is designed for versatility and ease of use. Thanks to the signature thumb hole, the knife can be easily opened with one hand, whether you are left-handed or right-handed. With a four-way adjustable clip, the knife is suitable for both left-handed and right-handed users.

With its combination of reliability, functionality and portability, the Native 5 is a favourite among users looking for a compact and high-quality EDC knife.

Spyderco Native collection

The Native series has inspired several other successful Spyderco models. The original design was made bigger to create the Native Chief and Native Chief Lightweight and scaled down to the compact Lil‘ Native and Lil’ Native Lightweight.

For anyone looking for a more robust knife, there's the Shaman. Each model in this series features a variety of steels, handle materials and carry options, making the Native line a versatile and widely applicable collection.
