Jade handles really makes sense for a Chinese folder due to the Chinese historical reverence for the gemstone.

I usually try to not make too many comments on other Spyderco collaborations outside of my own, but I can’t help myself on this one...

Is the price a bit high. Quite possibly, but...
An Iconic design from a legend in the field, delivered in a unique material set, all from my hands-down favorite knife brand...
Well, I pulled the trigger the minute it dropped, and with no regrets.

I really want one, but $US209.95 + $US33.95 shipping = $US243.90 = $AU314.18 +.

So I'm tossing up will I, won't I. :rolleyes:

Yeah Bloke,

I'm a bit undecided over this one. Doesn't have the same feel as the earlier Lum Chinese Folders. I might wait a while and if they are still available I may, or may not, click BUY ?!? :rolleyes:

You realize, of course, that when they are gone, they’ll be gone (except for the flipped ones on eBay) and you’ll be sobbing in your beer.

Still in stock. Wonder how many they sold? I hope this doesn't affect their ability to order more exclusives since they are possibly sitting on 10s of thousands of dollars in unsold inventory. Maybe they will stick to the Golden models and M4 going forward since they are hot sellers. Still plenty to do in that space.

Native 5 (coming soon...hopefully both Satin and DLC)
Manix Backlock
Military DLC
Lil Native compression
Lil Native backlock
Para 3
Shaman

Then maybe come up with a cool new FRN color and do exclusives in the lightweight Native and Manix models with M4! Is there such a thing as natural FRN? :D

I agree with SFNative. As much as I would like to have a Lum Chinese design, it seems overpriced. It would still be out of my price range, but I think they would sell more of them.

I'm waiting for them to bundle it with another knife like they've done with other slow selling exclusives. I just hope they do a delica or a dragonfly like they've done with a couple recent bundles.
