Spyderco Salt 2 C88SYL Pre-Owned - Satin 3" H1 Stainless Fully Serrated Drop Point Blade & Yellow FRN Handle Scales - Lockback Manual w/ Round Thumb Hole | Made in Japan

If you use knives in or around salt water, you likely know about Spydercos Salt Series of folders. All of the knives in this line are given high-grade materials that are meant to withstand even the harshest of conditions. From their widely-used Fiberglass-Reinforced Nylon handle scales which are beloved for being extremely lightweight and durable, to titanium pocket clips, to an array of highly corrosion-resistant stainless steels, the Spyderco Salt series boasts a number of incredible fisherman-friendly folders.

The original Salt knife, this Spyderco C88SYL Salt I takes after the legendary Delica in design cues, but brings all of the aforementioned Salt knife characteristics to the table. As with many Salt-line knives, this guy has a bright yellow died FRN handle, making it harder to lose around the waterways. Additionally, if you do drop it in the water, the brightness of the handle gives you a chance at seeing where its at in the water before its too late. Onto the real nitty gritty, this model comes with a H-1 stainless steel blade with full serrations. Finished satin with a flat/saber grind, the blade on this knife is super versatile and is bound to get you through anything without a spot of corrosion. As with other Salt-series knives, this guy has a reversible black titanium pocket clip in the tip-up position.

When it comes to the condition of this knife, the edge itself doesn’t look to be touched. The handle scales and pocket clip, however, do have a little bit of wear here and there, leading me to believe that this knife was carried but used sparingly if at all by its previous owner. The blade does have a few marks on the clip-side on the top flat bevel, but I am not sure what this would have resulted from. Other than that, a few scuffs on a couple of the edges of the handle, and a bit of wear around the pocket clip, this knife is in ready-to-use condition with all the capabilities that it had coming out of the factory. The opening action is smooth and the knife closes up easily, but not drop-shut, meaning it has some to be worked in. This knife DOES come with its original box and plastic bubble baggie. I must have forgotten to snap a picture of the box, but will update with one ASAP.
