2 mins and all sold out! Anyone willing to trade me mine for your para 3 version?

Buying/Selling/Trading isn't allowed on this forum. There is a trade section on bladeforums.com though. I doubt you will get anyone to do that trade though as the Para 3 is long sold out and much more highly sought after. You'd probably have to add another knife or cash to the deal.

Yeah they did go faster than I thought they would! :)

Definitely in since the G10 Native is one of my top 5 Golden models. I would have liked the linered version better paired with 4V since I can just grab my 4V LW if I want a lighter knife. But that is neither here nor there.

I am guessing these will be gone in under 2 minutes. Better be quick on the draw!! :D

Looked like it was about 2 and a half minutes. A little off I guess. Who else got one??
Hard to tell. I was refreshing the site on my phone and PC. The count kept going up and down. Both PC and phone showed about 2 min but hard to say for sure

Completely missed the whole release and it feels like winning. :D

Yeah, it's weird, it would go down in chunks. I would refresh, refresh, refresh, and the number didn't move, then all of a sudden its down to 22, then refresh, refresh, refresh, refresh, still 22, refresh, refresh, refresh, refresh, OOS. It's like the inventory only updated every 30 seconds or something maybe rather than being live. I feel like it was live in the first few drops SNK did.

I sold my Rex45 Military in a knife purge last year to fund some other stuff and I've been waiting for a 4V or Cruwear or 3V or AEB-L or REC PVD or Military Salt to replace it. Really hope the SNK Military is coming soon as I really miss having a Military in my rotation. :(

I have a feeling it may be the Chief though. Maybe Golden is knocking out all of these Chief blades at once with 4V, Rex45 and S90V.

Well that was frustrating. Browser issue and bam, sold out. Geez Spyderco really should require higher minimums. That was too fast.
They do require higher minimum number of pieces for exclusives now. I'm guessing this batch was ordered before that new minimum was implemented.

That's good to know. I had one in the cart, refreshed at 2:03 and it went from 300+ in stock to 22 to 0 in seconds. The Lil' Native had a similar number, less than 600. Hopefully the minimum now is at least double that.

Very impressed with the upgraded feel and design of this lock back compared to my older native - frn with pin construction and gin-1 steel. I was hesitent on getting a lock back since lately I've been crazy over compression locks. This SNK native has changed my view on Spyderco lockbacks. Thanks SNK for a smooth transaction and the included pouch and sticker!

I’m late to the party - again!

Finally got to try the Lil Native, and as I feared it turned out to be just a little too small for my hands (which doesn’t bode well for the slipjoint - dang and double dang!). Sold it on, and up pops one of these Native 5’s in 4v for just a little more than I sold the Lil one in s30v!

I didn’t like the Native LW, and my s35vn liner’d one just felt a bit too hefty, so hopefully this will be the Goldilocks variant.

Hope it works for you. The linerless G10 is really nice and my favorite configuration of the N5. :spyder: :cool:

Oh I think you'll like it. I have medium to large hands. I can fit the native 5 in a 4 finger grip behind the choil, but if I use the choil I have a very solid grip. Plus the St Nick's 4v variant may just be my favorite one yet.
