Spyderco Chaparral Slipit

The Spyderco Chaparral SLIPIT pairs refined craftsmanship with a slim, highly functional profile. Its CTS XHP blade offers excellent edge performance and is opened entirely by hand through Spyderco’s signature round hole. A precisely engineered notched-joint mechanism provides smooth, deliberate resistance without locking the blade open, while the maple handle brings warmth and individual grain character to the design.
