Sal, any word on this one? I'd like to see Cruwear in the regular G10 version as well. Either one...or both!
Any word on this one? I need a Cruwear Native! Id prefer a G10 version with skeletonized liners, but FRN lightweight will do until a G10/Cruwear hits.
Or better yet, linerless G10! I would imagine since all the G10 Natives are going through a rolling change to no liners any new models would reflect that.

Honestly now that there's the option for linerless G10 and it's only around half an oz heavier than the LW, I don't have any more desire for a LW version - let's just get it with the grey G10 and linerless.

Linerless G10 works for me! A half oz is not much difference and the strength is definitely there. The only things you do not get is the bi-directional texturing and the cost savings.

I’d be very interested to see a linerless G10 Cruwear N5 in that dark gray G10 they’ve been using recently. I can help but swap my N5 blades around into different frames, but a Cruwear version like this would be perfect from the get-go. :)

Agreed, a dark grey linerless G10 Native5 in Cruwear would be impossible to resist.

Yeah, any Native in Cruwear is a must buy for me. LW, linerless G10, or full liner g10. I'd buy multiples of each!

Hoping Sal can confirm that at least one of these will be happening and when?! :D

The Native 5 LW in Cruwear would still be one of the best ever Spyderco users I think so that should be made anyway even though most aficionados might prefer a somewhat fancier version in G10. Still hoping for the LW! ;)

Yep! That's the one I'm hoping for! Although...I'd be perfectly happy with a dark grey FRN LW. I want to add a linerless G10 model to my pile-o-Natives. So I might as well go big and make it Cruwear.

For sure. Both of these would be big sellers I would think. From my perspective it's a no-brainer to make both of these, with at least one being a production model. But that's just one man's opinion/wish/dream. :cool:

I would love linerless G10 but its hard to argue against the price savings that a LW model offers. On the other side, if it was G10 it would allow for a loop over wire clip where-as the FRN would need a whole new set of plates for incorporation of a wire clip... Hmmm, I guess its best to just make both a linerless G10 version and a LW FRN version! ;)

Any word on this in the pipe line? With the unprecedented number of exclusives this year it is no wonder we are seeing a slow release on standard production models.

2019 is the year of Cruwear...I can feel it in my bones. And number one on my list is a Native LW. I just hope it doesn't take as long to see as the Native Salt.
