Enjoy!

P.S. The clip pic is off in color and the clip is shinier than the pic shows.

Thanks! Looking forward more than ever to getting mine. :D

On a side note, it's amazing how much better the Native looks with a full flat ground blade.

Interesting. The webbing goes all the way down to the blade edge. I'll know if I'm sharpening it correctly on my sharpmaker. No sharpie marker will be necessary. I'm also happy it is a deep purple. Way to go Spyderco and thanks anti-torsion for the quick pics.

Interesting that the web hits the very edge.

...but one more reason not to use this knife AT ALL... :o

even the slightest touch-up will be traceable. A good thing for "NIB" buyers... they will know for SURE that this blade has never seen a SM :D

Then again, I bet since there are only 300 of them and they basically sold out within HOURS, most of them won't see any use (apart from carrying maybe) at all.

Nice pics! Do you mind to to take one ot two pics from the clip side of the knife? Actually, I've never seen the clip of this one... ;)

Yes, please. I heard it is a stainless (silver) clip, not a black clip and I'm happy for that too.

I'm pretty sure it is, but is it polished or bead-blasted like the one on my OIF Native? Looking forward to the pics.

They aren't numbered though right?

The ones for the collectors club will be. Normal ones are not.

Thank you for posting the pics! That looks AWESOME!!!!

On the first pic, the clip seems to be the same as the one on the OIF Native. The second picture though makes it look more polished, and I think this is the correct assumption...anyway, thank you for the pics!

Dennis

EDIT: I see now that you described the clip to be more polished than it looks in the pics. So, it is definitely not the same (bead-blasted) like on the OIF Native. Nice. Thanks!

anti-torsion,

Thanks very much for the pics. That thing is awesome. It makes me even more anxious to get mine. :) I can already see I'm going to have trouble using it. I think this may be my very first "admire and flick" knife.

Again, thanks. Beautiful pics......and that purple is just right.

Wow!
Looks like the purple para cord I have is the same color.

Mine is gonna get carried and used for sure. No plans to ever sell this one, so no need to baby it. Knives always mean more to me once I've used them and "made them mine." :D

Dude this picture........

Makes it look like it has like glittery stuff or little flicks of silver or something in the FRN. Not sure if it's just the lighting or what, but it's neat looking
