Yes they're close but I find S90V to be a little easier to touch up

I love my Seki knives, but I guess I wouldn't say no to a Teal/Aqua G10 Military in S90V or better yet Cruwear? Or even better, DLC Cruwear? :D
I hate waiting. :D A Teal/Turquoise/Aqua G10 Military in S90V works for me! As long as it matches my shorts!!

Thank you and keep these teal exclusives coming! I've got the dragonfly and the endura...very happy to add more, especially in these upgraded steels.laker_cj wrote: ↑Wed Sep 23, 2020 9:05 amWe sold out of them within an hour. ~1000 piece run.
Pending on our shipping schedule (we're working 6 days a week to try to keep up); dealers should start seeing them in their within a week and preorders through them should start popping up by end of day/tomorrow is my guess.

Re: NEW: MGE Wholesale Teal Native5 Exclusive
I think s90v sells slower when it's paired with carbon fiber and therefore a way higher price tag. This is a totally reasonable price and a color that a lot of people (such as myself :D) really like. The s90v manix lightweights from CS sold out in a few hours, right? And the teal dragonflies sold out 2 runs. The Enduras are still in stock a few places, but that's a model that's too big for a lot of people. The Native is legal most places, and sized well for men or women. I predict these will sell well.TkoK83Spy wrote: ↑Wed Sep 23, 2020 8:52 amI'm thinking the opposite! I think they will sit for a while. The Rex45 LW sat around quite a while, and that was supposed to be an instant sellout. This one has S90V, that for some reason a lot of people don't seem to care for, or at least jump all over when knives in that steel are released. Also that color, granted a few of the others dropped in this similar color have sold well. The package as whole seems like it has potential to sit a little bit...though I could be wrong!

Re: NEW: MGE Wholesale Teal Native5 Exclusive
I prefer s90v because I find it more stable at the edge and less likely to chip. I find s110v holds an edge longer and is more corrosion resistant.
If this retails at $122.50 I'll definitely buy one. I'd love to have a nice s90v to compare straight across to my Rex 45 Native LW.

Re: NEW: MGE Wholesale Teal Native5 Exclusive
That's funny I thought of you when I saw this! I thought you might like the color. There are still Enduras in this same color available some places, but that's probably a bigger knife than you like.

Same here! And that would qualify as "interesting"! I'll vote for an SE S30V Spyderhawk in this combo as well! And maybe a Reverse S FRN Cricket in SE S30V?? Both of those would be interesting!

Re: NEW: MGE Wholesale Teal Native5 Exclusive
Thanks for the 'heads-up" on this laker_cj. Very nice..love the color!
If I didn't have any s90v or a Native I would consider this, but I am going to pass. I hate to get another knife and then have just one more of my current Spyderco models pushed to the "rear". I'm not into buying knives only to take a photo of them against a pretty backdrop and then stuffing them back into the box. I like to use what I own, and I own a lot right now. I keep trying to remember that the end of collection is dispersion.
