View all Spyderco Reveal 21 Knives

The Spyderco Sage™ 5 Salt® Series Folding Pocket Knife is a high-performance everyday carry tool designed for extreme corrosion resistance and dependable cutting performance, especially in wet and marine environments. Built around Spyderco’s proven Sage™ 5 platform, this Salt® Series edition enhances durability while maintaining lightweight, precision-focused functionality.

At its core is a full-flat ground CPM®MagnaCut stainless steel blade measuring approximately 3.0″, delivering an exceptional balance of edge retention, toughness, and outstanding corrosion resistance. This advanced steel is purpose-built for demanding environments where moisture and exposure are constant challenges. The satin-finished or TiCN-coated blade options provide either a clean refined look or a low-reflective tactical finish for light discipline applications.

The handle features open-backed construction with G-10 scales, nested skeletonized stainless steel liners, and Spyderco’s Compression Lock® mechanism for secure and smooth one-handed operation. Depending on the variant, the handle is available in high-visibility black-and-yellow Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture™ for maximum grip in wet conditions, or an all-black configuration with coated hardware for tactical concealment and durability.
