Spyderco Shaman SC229GPBK: Fully Blacked Out and Built to Work

The Spyderco Shaman is known for its powerhouse ergonomics and serious cutting capability—but in this black-on-black version, it gets a whole new attitude. The SC229GPBK is stealthy, sleek, and completely coated—right down to the liners and hardware.

Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply
I'm Chris, and this is one of the best executions of a blacked-out knife on the market. From the black DLC blade to the black liners, lock, clip, and screws—Spyderco didn’t cut corners here. It’s all black everything, and it’s all business.

Purpose-Built and Coated to Last
This version of the Shaman features a full-flat ground CPM S30V blade with a durable black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating for added corrosion resistance and minimal glare. The contoured black G10 handles are shaped for heavy use and comfort, locking in with the confidence of Spyderco’s signature Compression Lock.

But what makes this one stand out is the total blackout. Even the internal liners and lockbar are coated, giving this knife a cohesive, tactical feel that’s rarely done this well.
