Still in stock at BHQ 9 hours later.
No love for the G10 version?
I like mine, fit and finish is perfect!

It's got to be the price point. Count me in, I can't justify the additional $50 for the G10 over the LW...when the Manix, a superior model is around $40 less in G10 and a few dollars cheaper once the LW version comes out.

Its a shame too because that g10 is so much better looking in person than in pictures.
Manix being superior is always debateable but its price point does make me jealous. Dont even get started on the price of the military.
Anyway, yeah the g10 looks great.

Maybe the market is over saturated with Rex 45? Since January we’ve had the Pakkawood Shaman dealer exclusive, Manix 2 Sprint, a couple of Para 3 dealer exclusives, Para 3 LW Sprint, Native LW, and Native G10, with 3 more sprints to come (let me know if I overlooked a model). I’m not complaining. I’ve bought a couple of the ones mentioned above, and will at least buy 1 more of the sprints to come. Just pointing out that there has been a lot of Rex 45 become available since January.

Re: Native 5 g10 rex45 alert thread
Yea I can see the $52 increase might be a no go for some. I was going for the LW in the beginning for the price difference.
The G10 version scales are stronger than my Native 5 Salt, cant squeeze them together. Plus it has phosphorous-bronze washers. Is that worth an extra $52? I dont know.
I really like both versions of mine, each have different perks.
And yes I love the Manix 2

If anyone is looking for a deep carry clip for this knife, the Lynch clip that's made to go around the lanyard hole on the Para 3 fits the contour of the Native 5 nicely...much better fit and feel than a standard deep carry clip.
