Spyderco Forums

New to the forum, been lurking from google for a while. I’m wondering if anyone else would love to see a lil Native in a lightweight, FRN type flavor as much as I would. Assuming it’d have to be a backlock I think it would be a great “American Dragonfly” so to speak. I think that a lighter weight, liner-less lil Native that can come in under $100 would be an awesome addition to the Native family and make a better companion to a Native 5 lightweight compared to the current lil natives that are more expensive and “beefier” than their bigger siblings.

Hi EZ,

Welcome to our forum.

Oh man I can't wait! I'm a huge fan of small FRN knives (Caly Jr, chaparral LW, and of course DF2). There just so practical. It'll be nice to see a Native LW made in Golden!

if it comes with a comp lock I would be SO amazed. and I might have to buy a ton of them...

I would love a lil native lw with wire clip

back lock!

I am in if it has a metal backspacer like the Chapparal Lightweight. FRN backspacers like the D4 and DF2 are a pain to disassemble a d reassemble.

Very cool. :) Would love to see a Little Native Lightweight Salt in LC200N at some point to partner with the Native Salt.

I won't say a wire clip is a must on a Lil Native LW but it would sure make it better (IMO).

Certainly interested in seeing what’s in the works!

Lightweight, XHP, Lil Native would be super.

Amazing! So happy to hear that! Thanks Sal, I appreciate it. XHP would definitely be interesting for sure. I just hope there are colors!

I was just looking at a picture of the Lil Native and the thought of a lightweight model occurred to me, and it just may be enough to dethrone the Dragonfly for me. Make a SE Salt version and I'm in.

Cool :cool: the steel possibilities are exciting.

i would buy a frn version with liners and compression lock.

FRN PE LC200N Salt will be a great little knife. Hopefully there is a murdered out black/black version!

I would really like a Cruwear Lil Native LW as well. Grey FRN and DLC.

Please add spine and choil jimping to the LW! It is sorely missed on the G10 Lil Native.

I'd love to see it in lc200n, s110v, maxamet,

And of course bd1n

Yes indeed! Add a wire clip, spine and choil jimping, and make it an LC200N Salt and these will FLY. A tiny little lightweight rustproof comp lock would be a super useful and fun little knife.

+ for jimping and wire clip! Backlock if I'm being greedy :)
