This knife was a nice surprise, I like it a LOT more than I thought I would.
The same here. Especially considering that I didn't like 40th anniversary.
Great pictures and video as always. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful knife for sure! It is good to see you back, Roman. I hope you are doing well.

Thanks for your review on your site and the video. Strange how things work. I have been considering which Spyderco to get for my second knife. My so-called analysis had led me to the Para 3 and the Lil’ Native. I was on the verge of ordering a Para 3 when I saw your video and review and remembered how much I liked the Lil’ Native when I had one. So, I will be ordering another, the compression lock plain edge for me though.

I hope it helps, the Para 3 IMO is a completely different animal than the Lil' Native.

My Chaparral is a back lock, my Lil’ Native will be compression. I like them both.

One of my most favorite Spyderco collectibles is the unique an rare Meerkat Countertop Display. It's a special display featuring a non-sharpened and chained Meerkat.

That is awesome.
The Meerkat is a great model and I wish the phantom lock was implemented on more knives.
My burgundy one sees some carry every now and then and people have a hard time figuring it out :p
I recall seeing pictures of this "challenge" display and it's a great marketing idea, but an even better collectible!
There can't be too many of these floating around (no idea about the actual number produced though).

A wolf has teeth.
An eagle has talons.
We, have Spyderco.
