Native 5 CPM154/S90V Sprint with peel-ply carbon fiber scales.. love that knife! I enjoy the added heft over the linerless Natives.. a little extra, but still not too heavy (for me)..
Among the Natives, this is the one I like best.
I like the heft of the blade and the balance of the knife. I purchased two and gifted one to a cousin. :spyder:

I agree completely, the balance is very nice! I absolutely love the texturing and look of the peel-ply CF too. Hah, I wish my cousin was into gifting Spyderco knives! Lucky guy..

Thanks for sharing! The Stretch is one of those knives that I'm becoming more and more attached too. I've only been around Stretches that are FRN and G10 ... WOW, these are really nice, even classy!

And he doesn't really understand what he got!!! I'll likely gift him another blade a year later; will be interesting to see if he has figured it out by then!

I hope he does! Always nice to convert somebody into appreciating a good knife haha.. I've been working on my father for years.. his favorite knife of all time is still a $3 ladybug knockoff that we got on a camping trip ~20 years ago.. it absolutely boggles his mind that a "real" one costs $40+. Haha, I love the man to death, but sometimes when it comes to tastes in knives I won't admit that we're related..

Totally forgot about the R - not a fan of the scales, but great pattern - reminds me of the Opus a bit
The wood scales are nice, Deacon

I agree. It's one of the best knives Spyderco has ever made, in my opinion.
When the K390 lightweight comes out, I'll have a serious dilemma on my hands. Do I need another K390 P4? :eek:
Probably. :D
+1 to all the above. :cool:
And the Stretch should get a mention here too. HAP40 is my favourite flavour... :)

The Endura 4, Delica 4, and Caly 3 are stone-cold classics in my mind.
