This knife did not work for me at all. Thick in the pocket and the deep carry makes it hard to get out of pocket. Much more so than a Caly 3 or Chapparel. I returned mine to my local shop. I am a massive LBK fan but the DF2 Wharn hit my creases much better, YMMV
Yeah, though I have an overall positive opinion of the MicroJimbo, the deep-carry clip is definitely my least-liked feature on the knife, though I appreciate & understand the reasoning behind it.

I just received a 15v variant, which seemed a very suited steel for this knife.

I’m very impressed. I couldn’t get on with the LilNative compression lock layout but this works very well. Secure and comfortable 3 finger hold with my XL hands, pocketable, fidgetable, and a gorgeous steel finish.

Techno-killer? Maybe…

I was waiting for some interesting steel option. Grabed the 15V and love it. Was a bit worried about the size, but it fits mine large hands with no trouble. Action is amazing, ceramic detent from factory, nice smooth stonewash, slice very good for a 3.7mm blade stock, put a titanium deep carry clip. After few days with it, Native 5 seems like a big kife😅 To me this is the best Yojimbo size ever👌 Very compact, yet operating like a big kife, 15V steel and brown G10 as a nice bonus. Thank You mr. Janich 😇
