This elite expression of the Military™ 2 showcases a full-flat-ground blade crafted from CPM® MagnaCut®—a state-of-the-art particle metallurgy steel that offers an exceptional balance of edge retention, toughness, and superior corrosion resistance. Cloaked in a non-reflective Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) coating, the PlainEdge™ blade is housed in a handle featuring peel-ply-textured black G-10 scales machined with the signature Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture™ pattern of Spyderco’s US-made Salt® Series knives. The interior of the scales is also machined to accept the knife’s nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners, which form the foundation of its high-strength Compression Lock® mechanism. To complement its blade steel and finish, this Military 2’s liners, four-position pocket clip, and all other hardware are also crafted from ultra-corrosion-resistant, marine-grade materials and have low-profile black coatings.
