Spyderco Atlantic Salt Rust-Free Serrated Knife

Spyderco's Atlantic Salt is a modified version of their renowned Rescue knife, designed with state-of-the-art, ultra-corrosion-resistant H-1 steel. The sheepfoot-shaped, hollow-ground blade is available with Spyderco's aggressive SpyderEdge serrations, offering exceptional cutting performance in and around fresh and saltwater environments.

The molded fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) handle features a textured "Volcano Grip" pattern and includes a shackle key. It is offered in both black and bright yellow, and includes a reversible black-coated titanium pocket clip for ambidextrous tip-up carry.

It is speculated that the sheepfoot blade shape originated with mariners, who found the rounded tip particularly advantageous when the knife accidentally dropped (a common occurrence when working on a ship in pitching seas), as it could not stab the foot upon hitting the deck. Additionally, commanding officers on these ships were said to prefer their hardworking sailors carry knives without pointed tips, especially while in port and "blowing off steam" after months at sea.

Spyderco's Rescue knives have long been favored by seafarers, and the design has since been embraced by rescue workers, EMTs, and ranchers – anyone who may need to cut around flesh in an emergency. The Atlantic Salt takes this proven design and enhances it with Spyderco's H-1 steel, which is completely impervious to corrosion.

Key specifications of the Atlantic Salt include a 3.68-inch blade, an overall length of 8.27 inches, and a weight of 2.75 ounces. It is equipped with Spyderco's reliable back lock mechanism and is made in Japan.

Spyderco is a company that prides itself on providing state-of-the-art innovation and product quality while maintaining traditional values and service. The Atlantic Salt exemplifies this approach, featuring superior materials and craftsmanship.

In addition to the Atlantic Salt, Spyderco offers a range of other Salt Series knives, including the Snap-It Salt, Assist Salt, Saver Salt, and Dragonfly 2 Salt. Each of these models shares the same H-1 steel and corrosion-resistant construction, catering to a variety of user preferences and needs.

Whether working on a ship, participating in rescue operations, or simply enjoying water-based activities, the Spyderco Atlantic Salt provides a reliable, corrosion-proof cutting tool that can withstand the most demanding environments. Its blend of function, quality, and heritage make it a standout choice for those who require a truly "saltwater-proof" knife.
