The SpydieChef has been added to the Salt Series of ultra corrosion resistant knives that are available from Spyderco. This new do it all folder incorporates the friendly ergonomics of a good chef's knife into an everyday carry folder.

CQI: In the quest for Constant Quality Improvement Spyderco has updated the SpydieChef with corrosion resistant Black Hardware plus a ceramic detent ball for added corrosion resistance and smooth operation.

Blade: Based on Marcin Slysz' custom design, this Sheepsfoot style blade has a full flat grind crafted made from ultra rust resistant steel. The blade edge extends lower than the handle for elegant graceful cutting.

Handle: Reeve Integral Lock frame is made from dark tumbled titanium with open back construction. A relief cut into the top frame offers quick access to the thumb hole for deployment and easy access to the lock-bar when in the open position. Finishing touches include a reversible deep carry wire pocket clip and built-in lined lanyard hole offer convenient carry options.
