A compact, ultra‑capable Spyderco built around the power of proprietary SPY27 steel.

Distilling the proven performance of the iconic Native 5 into a more compact, pocket‑friendly form, the Lil’ Native delivers exceptional capability in a legally compliant size. This elite variant features Spyderco’s proprietary CPM‑SPY27 blade steel — a formulation developed with Crucible Industries that enhances the VG‑10 lineage with additional alloys and the benefits of CPM particle metallurgy. The result is a blade offering an outstanding balance of corrosion resistance, toughness, and edge retention.

The full‑flat‑ground 2.5‑inch blade maximizes cutting efficiency, while stainless steel liners support the knife’s stout Compression Lock mechanism and easy‑to‑clean open‑backed construction. These liners are nested into peel‑ply‑textured G10 scales rendered in the signature cobalt‑blue color of Spyderco’s SPY27 family. Compact, strong, and highly refined, the Lil’ Native CPM‑SPY27 is built for everyday reliability in a premium, USA‑made package.
