Man… I’m trying to resist the urge to get one, but I have some store credit at DLT

Re: Lil' Native Wharncliffe
Received mine today, wonderfully light, factory edge is perfect as far as I can tell and the action is how I prefer it.
It's my first compression lock knife, still getting used to that aspect. It's going to live on my workbench (carry laws don't permit locking blades here). I could imagine it being a little pocket shredder, prefer my FRN knives in that regard.

That is one good looking knife.

And would look great in DLC CruWear with green G10 scales....
Re: Lil' Native Wharncliffe
Got two Lil’ Native wharnies for gifts at SFO’s OpFocus Seconds sale a few weeks ago. Now have an unblemished one coming. The model is one powerful cutter.

Re: Lil' Native Wharncliffe
The Lil Native is a favorite of mine, but I'm also hoping for an exclusive/sprint of this version. It's hard to justify five of the same model without some kinda variation
Re: Lil' Native Wharncliffe
That's why I like the Knife Joker's variation the best so far. The forest green scales are a great color set against the black CruWear blade. I much prefer the forest green to OD green and the recent blacked out CruWear version. That green really pops to me. Tastes vary of course.
Re: Lil' Native Wharncliffe
Still loving the Lil Native Wharncliffe. I'm a bit surprised it doesn't create more buzz around here and elsewhere. Am I just getting the wrong impression or is this one flying a bit under the general radar? I'd be down to go for a upgraded sprint version if one came around and wonder if that may never happen due to lack of popularity... Any thoughts anyone?
