Although the Shaman's handle shape and ergonomics follow the spirit of the Native, its handle construction and lock mechanism are distinctly different. The handle's scales are 3D machined from G10, thoughtfully contoured to provide a comfortable, secure grip, and feature Spyderco's signature Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture pattern. Skeletonized stainless steel liners nested within the scales reinforce the handle's structural strength and form the basis of the knife's patented Compression Lock. This high-strength mechanism is located in the spine of the handle, where it contacts the web of the thumb during normal use and is well protected from accidental release. Its location also allows the blade to be closed safely and easily with one hand without placing your fingers in the path of the edge. To ensure convenient carry and keep the knife poised for immediate access, the handle includes a four-position pocket clip that offers a choice of left or right-side, tip-up or tip-down carry.

The Shaman Salt is a powerhouse cutting tool that is deeply rooted in the success of one of Spyderco's most iconic designs and the feedback of their loyal customers.
