Well shucks! This item is no longer available and we don't know when it will be back.Here are some similar items that we hope float your boat: We've heard the demands for a CPM-M4 Shaman and are excited to deliver this awesome piece with a black DLC blade! This Blade HQ Exclusive Spyderco Shaman is the next in line of our sold-out M4 and natural G-10 series! The Shaman is a relatively new offering from Spyderco, and this will be one of the very first exclusive black DLC variations of this new favorite! Limited run that will go quick. We've tweaked the standard Shaman configuration to create a unique addition to our exclusive Spyderco lineup. The standard blade has been upgraded with a black DLC coated premium CPM-M4 steel, a high-speed steel with excellent toughness and edge retention qualities. The Shaman is a knife that begs to be used, and the toughness of a fantastic tool steel like CPM-M4, compliments this knife extremely well. The standard black G-10 handle has been replaced with translucent green natural G-10 scales. Includes black clip and hardware. The Spyderco Shaman is a larger, more capable version of the iconic Native design theme. A high saber grind and prominent swedge create excellent edge geometry and a fine-tuned point. Its handle sports ergonomic G-10 scales over skeletonized stainless steel liners to keep the Shaman lightweight and comfortable. Top it off with a high-strength Compression Lock mechanism and a four-position pocket clip, and you have one solid EDC folder. Features:
