Is this a totally new clip or has it been used before on a different model?

Thanks for the pics.

...The only thing i would change is i wish it had the same pocketclip as the g10 version so i could put my deep carry clip on...

Me too. Wish they had used the same clip. I'll be taking a blowtorch and a pair of pliers to the clip and folding it over as soon as my LW Native arrives. And when I mess it up and have to order another one Spyderco Customer Service will be like "..I can't believe you already broke the clip! We just released these!!" :D

I believe its a new clip. Its similar to the tenacious clip. But still a little different. Not to fond of it. No where close to deep carry with this knife. But its still a great knife so i can live with the clip.

Wire clip would've been nice.

Wire clip would've been nice.

I agree!!!

My cousin ordered a LW version today from KW

[twinboysdad]

handled it at Mark's Outdoors today. Out of every Native I have handled, this one is the easiest to access the thumbhole on.

Are the handles on this one FRN or are they FRCP?

I believe they are FRN,

Handled one today and this is hands down my favorite version of the Native so far. There is no earthly reason I need one at this point, but this is going to be a must-buy for me. Great job, Spydercrew!

Just ordered mine from NGK

I do not have a problem to access Spyderhole on any of mine, but this sound intriguing. May be I need one more Native5 in addition to 6, which I have. Most likely will wait for different steel.

I got mine yesterday just to check out, I'm not a fan of the Native's ergos for my hand. It's really nice! There are no liners, the inside has a lattice of ribs like the Manix lightweight, it's super light, but very rigid. It does have a hollow sound due to the handle construction, but that's a non issue for me. The blade finish is a neat ghostly gray like the new FFG S30V Manix 2's.

Can't wait for mine & my son's to get here...I feel confident this model will fill our EDC "wants"...at least that's what all you guys' + posts are leading me to believe :spyder: :)

[WireEdge Roger]

If my hands were a little smaller, I'd love this version! I bet you and your son will really like it.

Thanks, Sal!

I got mine what a surprise it was, I had an idea of what the native was but you really need to handle one. I can't put it down, first it is light and well balanced, the ergos accommodated my large fat hands. It felt like I was holding a dragonfly but with a fuller body and larger blade. The control you have on this middle sized knife is awesome. I am a fan of the native now I would really like a CruWear version of it, that would be awesome. The FRN its sturdy the take down construction is awesome and the spine of the blade is thick I really like that. If you dont got one you are missing out.
