Spyderco’s group of water-friendly folders and fixed blades collectively
make up the Spyderco Salt Series Line. Salt Series knives have H-1
blades. H-1 is a nitrogen-based blade alloy rather than carbon-based.
The elimination of carbon in the steel renders it one-hundred percent
rust proof and just like its carbon-steel cousins, H-1 hones to a hard
sharpened cutting edge that earns high marks for edge retention. The
Spyderco Dragon y2 is just recently being offered with an H-1 blade
option, called the Dragon y2 Salt. What makes the Dragon y a bestseller
is its mid-sized blade, ergonomic handle with a front- finger choil and
a spine cusp. Its blade-to-handle geometry and leveraging points ll a
gripping hand, making it feel like you're cutting with a much larger
large knife. Its FRN (fiberglass reinforced nylon) handle is molded with
a grip pattern called Bi-Directional Texturing that ergonomically fills
the hand with a series of angles and leveraging spots and is available
in Marine Yellow. The addition of textured jimping on the choil, spine
and screw-together handle construction and a left/right tip-up wire clip
make pocket carry effortless and convenient. Hollow-ground for high
cutting performance, the blade comes in a PlainEdge or SpyderEdge
configuration. Precise positioning of the enlarged Spyderco Round
Opening Hole in relation to the pivot makes opening/closing the folder
smooth.
