You have some really sweet knives! I didn't know there was a larger knife that used N690Co before.
First picture of the SS Balance in the wild that I've seen. There was a request a week or so ago where someone was looking for an opinion from someone who owned both Balances, and no one had them both!
Thank you for the pictures.

Man you have most of the great ones. Oddly enough i found myself drooling over the stainless Native the most..i don't even recall seeing a stainless Native before.
The Stainless Native is a very nice looking model. I think they call that the Native 2, similar to the Endura 2 being stainless. (I could be wrong on it being a Native 2.) I think the AUS-10 is the interesting part of that one. There seems to be a lot of history and variations with the Native line. I look forward to seeing some premium steel in the Native variations. The G-10/Linered setup leaves some hope for a nice/premium variation.

Thanks for all the kind words. I have loved Spyderco since I got my first one (Rescue Clip-it) in the early 90's. That thing did everything that I ever asked of it. That's why I love Spyderco, their knives are always "function first" and that's what also makes them beautiful!
