Natives: Which is your favorite?

[SpyderEdgeForever]

My all time favorite is the Native III with VG-10 Stainless Steel blade and FRN handle.

What about everyone else?

I've never owned one, but I like the Moonglow Native the most.

[Skywalker]

I'm with GoldenSpydie; mine is probably the CF/S110V Native 5.

But from pictures I've seen the smooth CF/VG-10 Native 4 looks really nice too.

My favorite is GONNA BE the Lightweight Native 5...

I own a Forum Native, and it's great...

I own a brown XHP, no complaints...great steel...

I prefer the FFG models over the swedged ones, somehow looks more sheeple friendly to me, IMHO

[The Deacon]

This Native V, customized with Mexican Ebony scales by Gull Wing...

...my only regret is that Spyderco didn't eliminate the swedge completely.

[Evil D]

I'd love to see the original lightweight in S110V. Otherwise I'll stick with my SE lightweight.

My all time favorite is the Native III with VG-10 Stainless Steel blade and FRN handle.

I always liked the C78 more than the C41, my favorite variant:

[gbelleh]

I like this one...

[SpyderNut]

What's this? No takers on the 110V Forum Native? :) Aside from that model, I too like the Native III (despite it's rather rotund handle shape, of course).

[tvenuto]

Plus one on the forum native. Nice pic, gbelleh.

These three:



The third is desert ironwood from Luke at Cuscadi. All three are fitted with deep carry clips made by Casey Lynch (Originalspaceman on BF). Here's a sneak peek of the sweet Domino and Dice scales in desert ironwood currently being made by Steve Ketchen (spketch on BF):

Easy, forum native5 all the way. Never liked the grind on most of them but love the FFG Native5.

[3rdGenRigger]

I like the 2013 Forum Native the most.

[xceptnl]

Forum Native is certainly in a class of its own, but the S30V PE Native 1 is my favorite. It was my first Spydie so that makes me partial.

Beautiful knife. +1 on swedge.

[bh49]

I like this one...

the same with me, but CF N5 is very close.

[paladin]

the fluted titanium is nice also

The coyote brown ones Sal gives our bada$$ soldiers who keep us safe! Thank you for supporting them with great cutlery Sal.

[Invective]

Gotta say it's the 440V SE Native. Like it so much I've got two of em. Can't say that about any of my other knives :D
