I ordered some. That 2nd amendment glass is very cool, but you couldn’t brim it with bullets and expect it to be worth anywhere near something like this, not that anyone asked ;) I am stoked to get mine!
Part of me wants to assemble lil native hardware onto it(while leaving it in the glass). Now would be a sweet time for those BHQ backlock bundles.

That's completely ridiculous, and totally awesome. Mine should be here Wednesday.

So is the blade stuck pretty tight in there or could you remove it?

Lockup is solid with no apparent blade play! lol :D but yeah the blade feels like its firmly in place.

Cheers! :spyder:

Doubt you’d be able to remove the blade without breaking some glass

One interesting thing about the blade, is that it's nearly fully finished. It's ground almost completely, just missing an edge, it has all the typical laser markings including a date code, and the spine is even polished around the pivot.

I'd be surprised if all that work was done to these blades just to put them in this glass. I'm being overly optimistic when I say this, but it really seems like there might be an LC200N Lil Native on the horizon! :cool:

I truly think that the LC200N makes my Scotch taste better!

I caved and ordered tonight. Now the waiting.

Just have to keep using my Jim Beam rocks glass a little longer.

Would be nice to get a Lil Native in LC200N to go with this rocks glass. I plan to use this more generally around the office. Nobody will mix up their glass for mine now!

Ordered. To me the price makes sense, as it has a literal knife blade in it. It just seems like such an iconic piece of spyderco memorabilia to me, couldn't pass it up.
Dang! I've been trying to decide if I really need one of these. You're right. It's one of the coolest pieces of Spyderco memorabilia I've seen. I'd kick myself if I didn't get one. Might even have to buy two

EDIT: Two on the way! :)

I have been thinking the same thing :) I also realized, if this glass were to break, I wouldn’t be all that upset ;) sure it wouldn’t be ideal, but I’d have an LC200N lil native blade.
I wasn’t going to post pics since they didn’t turn out amazing, but here’s some more angles for you guys. I’m stoked about these!

I dont drik alcohol at all, but I must admit, this is really a piece of art!

Good job Spyderco for setting the bar higher and higher.

Are they heat treated?

I doubt they'd heat treat these given their use in a glass. But I could be wrong.
