That is a great price. I love mine. Maybe an overall favorite. I made a few tweaks to mine, but man it is good.

Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!
I have 2, one shiny and stock and the other has red micarta scales and a deep patina on the blade, with a clip very much like yours. got that one secondhand when I was trying to decide what to do with the shiny one. Price was right, now I have 2.
Only thing I don't really like is the lock is a little stiff to actuate. That also makes it hard to accidentally unlock, and it's not that hard to unlock, just ergos are kinda meh.
Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!
Ergos are such a personal thing. I really like the neutral grip on this. Just a slight one finger groove. I only have one and since grinding down the liner and improving the detent I plan on getting a lot more use out of it. Which means it will probably get some patina. Makes me think of getting a 2nd one just to keep pristine because that blade is one of the best looking blades Spyderco makes.defenestrate wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 3:15 pmI have 2, one shiny and stock and the other has red micarta scales and a deep patina on the blade, with a clip very much like yours. got that one secondhand when I was trying to decide what to do with the shiny one.

Knifecenter Exclusive Cruwear/Smooth G10 Lil Native @ $126 is a no-brainer (and a pretty crazy deal!) over the S30V base model ($142.45)..

I'm conflicted between this and the M4 Delica. Really want another M4 knife but don't yet have a Lil Native. Hmm.DSH007 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 13, 2022 10:57 amKnifecenter Exclusive Cruwear/Smooth G10 Lil Native @ $126 is a no-brainer (and a pretty crazy deal!) over the S30V base model ($142.45)..

This has to be one of the best deals out there. I personally love the looks of it too. I wonder if s90v is still Sal’s favorite steel.

Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!
Absolutely. Those grinds are stunning when shiny and new. It looks good with a patina but I stopped forcing a patina on every M4 blade I owned once I had that in hand. It was just convenient to find an already patinaed, micarta knife that I don't mind getting dirty.JSumm wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 3:25 pm

I do find that for carry and use, despite not having a lot of shape to lock into the hand, it feels great for most purposes.
