At least BladeHQ ships to France !
I love the colors of the White and DLC Rex45 from GPKnives, but since I'm already gonna get a Rex45 N5 LW soon, this M4 seems like the best buy, even at the price (knowing it's gonna cost me around $200 total).

The "mint" was a pretty bold choice for this series, but I don't really like "Jade" G10 either, so maybe it will be successful as well. That said, I seem to be one of the few that want to see more translucent FRCP.

Regardless, can't go wrong with DLC M4!

Only M4 I have is the GB2, I'm really interested in how coatings work, their effect and how durable they are (especially DLC)

Well DLC stands for Diamond Like Carbon, which gives you an idea of how tough it might be. If it is a true DLC coating then it should be very durable. DLC is one of the premium finishes used to coat high wear components on firearms, such as AR-15 bolts, and the coating significantly increases the lifetime of the part.

Oh, this makes me doubtful... They used to ship to France, then not, then ship. Maybe it changed again !

I hope for you they still do and its only my stupid country that is off limits for shipping. Would not be a surprise Belgium is only known for a few things. Beer , fries and idiotic politician’s :')

Oh, I love to go to Bruxelles to see the 2 comics shops owned by my father's friends ! Bruxelles is the most welcoming city I've stayed time in (in my foreigner's experience, of course).
I've sent a message to their customer service, I guess I'll know sooner than later ;)

I hope you are lucky and they still ship to you. :grin-smiling-eyes

And about Bruxelles the city itself is nice as long as you keep to the city center. The moment you go a bit further you would be best to have a yojumbo in you’re pocket. Or you would lose you’re wallet and cellphone in about 5 minutes :rofl There are a lot of poor people in the suburbs there living in what i can not say are houses anymore. So you can imagine it is not the safest plays to wonder around. :neutral
And you do not have to go far for that because bruxelles is tiny in scale to a real city like Paris ( now that is beautiful city by the way :grin-smiling-eyes )

I went to Charleroi once, and missed a turn and ended-up in the streets parallel to the center of the city... I know what you mean :squinting-tongue A bit like London ain't it ?

Charleroi the name maybe sounds a bit royal in french but it can not be farther from it. :zany
The French part of Belgium is the most beautiful part of my country as long as you do not enter any place larger then a town. The city’s almost all of them are depressing , dark , with houses that fall apart except in the few streets were tourists come. All because the mining stopped decades ago. ( Not that the city’s in flanders are beautiful maybe Brugge but that would also be the only one i guess. )

Paris is far nicer then london for me. But it could be because of the weather that was so bad when i went there :grin-sweat

Oh this is going to be hard. Some RIT dye and I'd have the stealth Native 5 I've wanted.... Would go so well with the Stormtrooper one I just got too.

I have been waiting on the MC Native 5 I pre-ordered at the end of December as well. Just saw that the Hogue Deka in MC that was announced and that I ordered two months later is shipping today.....

I think DLC coated and in a Native 5 is probably my optimal way to try some CPM-M4. These mint BHQ exclusives have been hanging around in stock a while, so maybe I'll get a chance to pick one up next month.

I may break down to. I don’t have any native yet and I do love M4.

Greetings, description/details say “black blade”.

Is it safe to infer that Spyderco black = DLC, and not just GunKote or Cerakote?

TIA!
