Lil’ Native Sprints/Exclusives?

#1

Post by Systmrcvr »

Truly have loved the Lil’ Native since it came out - but I’ve got to say I’m a little surprised that there hasn’t been much in the way of sprints and exclusives aside from the St Nicks variant in 4V and the release of the Rex 45 version. I know the S90V and LC200N can’t be far behind.

Thoughts on when more sprints/exclusives of these will happen? Am I the only one who is surprised by this? Seems like a natural extension to see these in Cruwear, M4, M390, etc.

I love the lil Native as well. Carried an S30V comp lock from right when they released them. So I naturally jumped on the 4V which is really nice.

Oh there will be more! I think it's more of a juggling act in Golden to fit everything into the schedule.

Bumping this thread to see what we can expect.
Must say that the backlock version didn't get much varieties; are the sales really so bad?

There was a backlock blade with LC200N in the Spyderco glass, but nothing further than that.

Is backlock going to get amything soon?

But in G10. If Carribean can have it, Native Salt should also.

I'd definitely be interested in a Salt version with SE LC200N. That one might actually dethrone the Dragonfly Salt as my favorite small folder.

[+1]

Agreed 100%

I picked up the Rex45 Lil' Native, it was my first Lil' Native and I never thought I'd dislike the compression lock, but for me, it does not belong on a knife that small. I do want to try a back-lock version though...

Yeah, for one thing it is in the way, and for another the blade is heavy enough relative to length that it would likely overcome the detent in pocket.

I've had the S30V, 4V AND LC200N versions for a while now....

Of course the LC200N is unsharpened missing a handle and embedded in a rocks glass :D
