Spyderco's unique Chaparral series of gentlemen's folding knives expresses the same basic design platform with a variety of unique handle materials and treatments. One of the newest additions to this best-selling family is the Spyderco Chaparral FRN 2.8in Lightweight Knife, which offers the same design theme and functionality as its brothers, but with a simple, reliable, and affordable injection-molded handle.
Its tough fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) construction minimizes weight and offers the high-traction advantages of the Bi-Directional Texturing pattern, while its nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners ensure excellent structural strength and precise alignment of all key components. Like the other versions of the Chaparral, its defining features include a full-flat-ground CTS XHP stainless steel blade, a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole for ambidextrous one-handed opening, a sturdy back lock mechanism, and a reversible deep-pocket wire clip that supports discreet left or right-side tip-up carry.
