The Lil’ Native takes everything users love about Spyderco’s classic Native design and refines it into a smaller, more pocket-friendly format. This special Sprint Run version steps things up with a blade made from CPM 15V—an ultra-high-performance tool steel known for its unmatched wear resistance and edge retention, thanks to its high vanadium content. Spyderco has partnered with custom knifemaker Shawn Houston to apply a specialized heat treatment that brings out the full potential of this steel. True to the Compression Lock model, it includes nested stainless steel liners, a secure and easy-to-use Compression Lock, and a reversible deep-carry wire clip. Finished with brown peel-ply-textured G-10 scales and Houston’s “Triple B” logo on the blade, this Lil’ Native is compact, capable, and built to perform far beyond its size.
