The Spyderco Shaman: Purpose-Built Everyday Carry
The Shaman represents a thoughtful evolution of proven knife design. Approximately 20 percent larger than Spyderco's iconic Native, it maintains the refined ergonomics that have made that design a standard while introducing significant improvements for serious users.
Blade Design and Performance
The 3.58-inch blade is crafted from CPM S30V stainless steel—a premium tool steel that balances edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. The high flat grind geometry delivers a sharp, acute point suitable for utilitarian tasks while maintaining structural strength. This is a blade designed for work, not flash.
Handle and Ergonomics
3-D machined G10 scales are thoughtfully contoured to fill the hand and provide a secure, comfortable grip in extended use. Beneath the matte-finished scales, skeletonized stainless steel liners reinforce structural integrity and form the basis of the knife's Compression Lock mechanism—a proven locking system that is both reliable and user-friendly.
Practical Carry Options
The four-position pocket clip supports left or right-side carry, with both tip-up and tip-down orientation. All hardware, including the clip, features non-reflective matte black coating for a professional, low-profile appearance.
One-Handed Operation
The signature Spyderco Round Hole is fully accessible from both sides, enabling swift, ambidextrous one-handed opening. This is a knife built for immediate access when you need it.
