To : MBC forumites
I was recently exploring "MBC" and was
wondering if any of you forumite(s)
used the SS "Native", "Endura","Delica" or
otherwise for MBC ? I was thinking of
the SS "Native" for myself ; the weight
difference is more than 1 oz. for the
SS version, and seeing MBC employment
would have the knife used as an
"impact" weapon I thought the idea
rather grand. Any idea(s).
A.E.T.
Stainless Steel "Native","Endura" for MBC ?

I don't know about a SS handle Native. For me, the Native doesn't protrude much when held in my hand (closed), so for me there isn't much handle for striking and such. And I don't like SS handles in MBC knives, since they tend to get slippery. Maybe you have smaller hands, so that you can make the native work as an impact weapon. If you can, I would suggest to handle one first.

Allen,
I've been carrying the S.S. version of the "Native" for around 6 mos. and have found it to be a very comfortable daily carry knife and very functional with daily chores. No MBC chores as yet luckily. I think it is short for an impact tool. Yesterday I bought the S.S. version of the "Endura" at our local gun show and would suggest that as a better MBC impact choice. It has a great feel due the extra weight and handle shape. The extra reach and shape of the blade is an added plus also. Be careful, I think S.S. versions of "Spydies" can be addictive.
