The Spyderco Tasman Salt SpyderEdge Yellow FRN Marine Knife features a Hawkbill blade. This distinctive curved cutting tool has a claw-like tip that originated in the marine/commercial fishing industry. Cutting in and around water involves cutting line, netting and rope and is done quickly, often while pulling downward or toward you. The arcing tip holds what you are cutting against the sharpened edge keeping it from slipping off the tip. The blade is made with state of the art non-rusting H-1 steel. H-1 is a precipitation-hardened steel containing nitrogen instead of carbon, which cannot rust. The handle is made of molded fiberglass reinforced nylon (FRN) textured with a Volcano Grip pattern. The marine/diving knife is equipped with a reversible left/right hand titanium pocket clip (also non-rusting) that positions the folder tip-up in the pocket.
