A proud member of Spyderco’s remarkable Salt Series, the popular Caribbean has also earned legions of followers who enjoy its design away from the water. For those users—and those obsessed with extreme edge retention—we have supercharged the Caribbean design with a blade crafted from Crucible Industries’ remarkable CPM REX 121. This high-vanadium, cobalt-bearing tool steel was specifically formulated to offer the greatest attainable hardness and wear resistance possible in a high-speed steel. It effectively bridges the performance gap between high-alloy tool steels and carbide materials in the most demanding industrial applications. When applied to knife blades, it offers breathtaking sharpness and phenomenal edge retention. The full-flat-ground, leaf-shaped blade of the Caribbean REX capitalizes on these properties to deliver unparalleled cutting performance. It is supported by a high-strength Compression Lock mechanism housed within a handle featuring nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners and peel-ply-textured G-10 scales in a distinctive burnt-orange color. To allow convenient carry and immediate access, it includes a polished pocket clip that is reversible for tip-up carry on either side of the body.
