Spyderco Knives

Lance Clinton, known as "Surfingringo" on the Spyderco Forums, is a passionate fisherman, water sportsman, and knife enthusiast. Based on his hard-earned experience using knives in and around the water, he designed the WaterWay—a highly capable fixed blade knife and a proud addition to Spyderco's Salt Series. Crafted from ultra-corrosion-resistant LC200N steel, the WaterWay's blade has a full-flat grind, a distal taper, and an integral lower guard. Its full tang is capped by contoured G10 scales with a CNC machined texture pattern that ensures a positive grip, even when wet. Ideal for cleaning fish and a myriad of other chores, the WaterWay comes equipped with a custom-molded foldover-style Boltaron sheath with a G-Clip mount.

Spyderco's Salt Series is a remarkable family of knives that represent the definitive solution to an age-old problem: rust. Through the groundbreaking use of non-carbon-based blade steels like H-1 and LC200N and other specialized materials, Spyderco has created a diverse line of knives that are literally impervious to corrosion and ideally suited to hard use in and around the water.

LC200N is also a nitrogen-rich alloy, but it achieves its hardness through a conventional heat-treatment process. Although it does contain a trace amount of carbon, its high nitrogen and chromium content gives it superior corrosion resistance and toughness, even at the high degrees of hardness required for knife blades.
