Want one..... can't pull the trigger though! Probably going to regret it later, but I must stay true to my wish list.

I wouldn't really worry about getting one right now. It's not a sprint, it will probably be like the Southard. A bunch will come out at once and get bought up and then they will come out with batches in the future.

I have two places preordered, I feel like I should probably get rid of one but I don't know which :confused:
One at GP and one at KW

This knife has a lot of nice features, blade steel, ti framelock, ball bearings, flipper. I would like this knife, but it looks a bit too w i d e(for me). As in Manix wide. My short fingers don't go around the Manix very well. So is it as wide as Manix? We shall see, as said it's not a limited offer, I have time.
I like the BB's, flipper, ti framelock of the Southard(I have one).

Which one do you live closer to? Faster shipping and more of a local support feel to it. The price works out about the same (shipping extra at KW, and shipping included at GP). I went with KC, then canceled it when I got in at GP because they are about four hours from me, and the only decent knife store I have ever visited in person.

Knifeworks is closer to me but, I've decided I'll go with GP if they ship Tuesday, and if not, I'll just go with Knifeworks since they ship Wednesday.
Both retailers have been great to me before, so it's hard to choose :D

Not only wide, but the blade length is unfortunately too long for me to legally carry. I'd love a Ti framelock flipper with a 2.75"-3" blade made out of a nice steel. However, the only knives I've seen that will fulfill that niche for me are customs. Maybe if Spyderco puts out a 3rd flipper, it will be a little smaller. Here's to wishful thinking :)

Thanks ZL1.
Definitely wider than the Native 5.
Now, I handle the Native just fine.
