Spyderco Tasman Salt Rust Free Plain Edge, Yellow

Spyderco's Tasman Salt folder combines our exclusive H-1 steel with a Hawkbill blade design to yield an exceptional mariner's knife. H1 is an extraordinary Japanese steel that uses nitrogen instead of carbon to create its steel matrix. The result is an austenitic steel that does not require heat treatment, gets harder and tougher with use and is completely impervious to rust! The distinctive curved shape of a hawkbill blade gathers and holds the material being cut, making it perfect for cutting materials like rope, line and netting. cutting against the sharpened edge keeping it from slipping off the tip. The hollow-ground H-1 blade of the Tasman is mated to a black molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle with a Volcano Grip texture pattern for a positive grip in all conditions. A titanium pocket clip positions the folder tip-up in the pocket and is reversible for left or right-side carry. The clip attachment screw is also hollow, providing a handy lanyard hole for attachment of a thong or cord when using the knife around water.
