Details
This Spyderco Caribbean REX brings the leaf-blade platform ashore in REX 121, a tool steel built for edge life. It is a full-size Compression Lock knife in burnt orange peel-ply G10, made for long cutting sessions.
- Full-Flat REX 121 Blade - REX 121 is a premium high-vanadium, cobalt-bearing tool steel whose dense carbides hold an edge longer than most stainless steels and need diamond or CBN to sharpen. It is not stainless, so dry and oil the satin blade after use. A full-flat grind carries the leaf profile to a utilitarian point.
- Burnt Orange Peel-Ply G10 Handle - Peel-ply-textured G10 scales give your hand a firm purchase on hard cuts, and the texture stays easy on pocket fabric. Skeletonized stainless liners sit inside an open-backed build that cleans out easily, with silver hardware and a lanyard hole.
- Compression Lock - Lockup is rock solid with zero blade play thanks to the nested Compression Lock. The release sits in the spine, which keeps your fingers clear of the edge path when you close the knife.
- Reversible Stainless Clip - Made from polished stainless steel, the clip reverses for tip-up carry on either side of the handle.
The Spyderco Caribbean
The Spyderco Caribbean began as a Sal Glesser design in the Salt Series. Originally built for divers and work around salt water, its broad leaf blade and full flat grind make it a slicer first, with a long, high-traction handle that fills a working grip. Nested, skeletonized stainless liners anchor the Compression Lock inside an open-backed handle, and a reversible clip rides it tip-up on either side, keeping it ready to work the second it clears a jeans pocket.
