The **Spyderco Caribbean C217GS** is a cool pocket knife that was designed for divers and use in marine environments. For this purpose Spyderco founder Sal Glesser used a couple specific materials.



The blade is made from LC200N steel. This is an extremely stainless type of steel that retains its sharpness well. Even in marine environments LC200N has proven itself to be a type of steel that remains corrosion resistant, even with limited maintenance.



The handle is made from striking black-yellow G10. Due to the remarkable milling pattern in the G10, the yellow of the inner layers is also visible on the outside. As such you can also easily see this knife under water. Even in underwater environments with bright blue water that make other colours stand out less.



The largest challenge for Spyderco with this type of stainless steel knives is not just finding the right handle material or type of steel. The challenge is the hardware. The liners, pocket clip and screws. That is what Spyderco paid special attention to.



Apart from the specific features for sailors, off-shore professionals and divers the Spyderco Caribbean is also enhanced with a couple familiar features. You can, for instance, open it with the thumb hole and Sal Glesser's own Compression Lock ensures the blade stays closed when opened.



This C217GS Caribbean is enhances with the standard leaf-shape-blade and a serrated edge. A so-called *SpyderEdge*, perfect when cutting through ropes and other high-fibre materials.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
