I bought a Wal-Mart Native the other day. What a great value! I brought it home and realized what a good design the Native is. I took it into my room and pulled out my knife drawer and realized I am now the proud owner of 13 different Spyderco knives. I look at and admire other maker's/companies knives and designs, but when I buy, I find that Spyderco is simply too good a knife for the money. I figure I'll end up with many more in the next few years. Sal and crew, you've ruined me for other makers! Thanks for a great product!
i had a similar reaction to the Native. i got it only because it was so cheap and i could drive down to Wal-Mart to buy one and i needed a spyder fix. now it's in my top 5 for sure.

Welcome. The Native was my first real spydie. I still fondle it and curse it for starting my addiction. Stick around you just might learn something. I know I did.
There ain't no rules around here. We're trying to accomplish something.
