Native 5 in M390/20CV
Re: Native 5 in M390/20CV
I'd for sure be in for either steel in G10. FRN Natives are nice too, but I still prefer the G10 models (liners or no)..

That would be an instant buy for me. I'd buy a rosewood version, too, if that's what Golden can do, but pakkawood finished like the delicas would be my preference.

Re: Native 5 in M390/20CV
I am one who has complained about the lack of variety in the Native5, especially about how many S90V Natives there have been.
That said, M390 goes to bed at night worrying that folks are gonna figure out that it isn’t that much different than S35VN and hoping that it will wake up and be S90V instead. I have yet to understand the hype over M390 myself.
So, I would likely pass unless it is a handle material that I really like. I don’t have anything against the steel and enjoy a few knives with it.
Still bummed that CS did S90V instead of XHP on the FRN Native and Manix. Oh well.
