Any more info on larger Native models (3.5, Chief)?
Any more info on larger Native models (3.5, Chief)?
I'm thinking of getting a Manix 2, and probably will no matter what, but really what I want is a longer Native. I love the Natives. I saw mention in a recent thread on Natives that there's a Native 3.5" in the works and possibly the (4"?) Native Chief after that.
Any idea when the 3.5" will land? And any details? I'm not too hung up on steel choice or grind but I think I'd like G10 scales, a backlock, and a combo edge option.
I'm a simple man, all I want is to buy more Natives :) .

I did not see the thread on the 3.5 native. That would be an interesting read. Will search for that.

I would imagine that it will be basically the same as the native 5, only longer. That is my hope at least...since that was my single gripe about the Native 5...the lack of edge. If this one makes it out, I am going to be a very happy guy.
And then even happier with a Chief. That thing looks just about perfect. Especially in M4. Sal...M4....Chief. Good combo...hint hint. :D

3.5" Shaman sound interesting, but I will not be able to resist 4" Native Chef, if it will be FFG as well.sal wrote: It's still in prototyping. A ways off. The 3.5" Native "Shaman" is quite a bit different from the regular Native. The 4" "Chief" is more like th regular Native, but longer.
