The **Spyderco Shaman** is a large and cool pocket knife, designed by Spyderco founder Sal Glesser. The Shaman has different characteristics you might have seen in other Spyderco pocket knives. At the same time, however, the Shaman is really different.


We start with the familiar: a blade with a thumb hole, made from S30V steel with a stonewashed finish, and a solid compression lock. An invention from Sal Glesser himself. Steel liners enhanced with holes to keep the weight low with around it G10 handles.


And those G10 handles are exactly what give the Shaman its character. They are beautifully rounded and have a matt finish. They are large, provide space for even very large hands, and are at the same time very ergonomic.


Because of it the Shaman has obtained its own place within the Spyderco range. A fascinating design that can be used as a work knife. However, because of its interesting construction, ergonomics and lock it is definitely still a collector’s item that will definitely be coveted by knife enthusiasts.

A great knife! Just the right size for me. Works well for variety of tasks. Lock mechanism secure and sturdy. Very cool design, a looker for me, though it is an individual thing what you like. 


I am not a knife expert. I needed a medium sized knife and have medium size hands, would say it would fit large hands well also. 
The knife is not cheap but made to last, it is not heavy, has a good heft, good grip. Lock seems very strong and confident.
Really happy with the purchase

Great knife. Very strong and comfortable in the hand. Blade spine is quite thick which is great for durability but makes it a bit less sliciy.

This is the worse knife I have ever bought. It arrived dull and the action is so stiff you can hardly open it. 
I thought it might ease with use but now I have had it over 30 days I cannot get a full refund. 
Avoid this knife! 

A heavy duty knife with sharp corners in the scales. Dont forget your gloves. If it wasnt for the scales, this would score higher, but ..... i have seen better on cheaper knives

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.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

Lock

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).

Sharpening angle

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).
