Spyderco Forums

Mine shipped out today. This will be my first new Spyderco in about 10 years, so I have some catching up to do. :)

Mail call!



Cameo from my first SE, who helped deliver the newborn Rex

Hah ha!

Really nice-looking colorway on this one. I've been avoiding looking at this thread haha.. doing my best to keep reminding myself that I don't need another Native..

Nice knife, hope you enjoy yours!

Never owned any coated blade, so even if I have a Rex45 N5 (satin) on the way soon, I'll try to pick this one up. Seems like it might stay available a couple of weeks.

So you found a solution for getting it shipped to Europe? ... I am sure one of our US forum brothers/sisters would help you out with that otherwise...

It's great! Always been a fan of black/white offsets, kinda like old diner and grocery store tile. Was definitely better in person, now I'm tempted at the mini bugout. Lovely

Received mine yesterday. That's pretty quick shipping. The white is so white it almost has blue overtones to it. Maybe because of the black hardware. And wow it's so sharp! Glad I picked it up. But it's no stealth knife for sure. In fact, I'm almost toying with the idea of picking up another to do an all black version.

This is actually really helpful, because there's no way I'll be this impressed with another shade of white.

The second solution ^^. As we often say, this forum is exceptional. I'm just waiting for my pay to be able to pay upfront !

Mine should arrive Monday.
This is my first Spyderco that I bought this year and I am pretty excited about it.
Probably for over 2 years now I have mostly been carrying Rex45 or K390 so I did not want to miss this.
I am glad this did not sell as quick as the initial Rex45 drops.

Mine arrived Friday. Fit, finish and aesthetics are awesome. GP shipped on the day I ordered it. Really happy with the knife an GP customer service.

Glad to hear that!
Curious if you´ll come to prefer the bunt orange or the "storm trooper" REX 45 Native...

Finally got mine delivered to me north of the border. Was curious about the colour of the white FRN, it truly is polar white, it'd be cool to have this in G10 form. Also the first time I've ever had lock stick on a backlock, I guess from the coated spine part of the lock meeting the blade tang part. Hope it wears in well

I want the REX45, but I don't want the easy to dirty white handle.... Now if I can merge the blade and lockbar into the m4 mint handles of the bladehq one...

Just ordered one... Will these scales take Rit Dye? (I'm thinking something like royal blue.)

I hope they release a lil' Native exclusive in Rex 45!

They'll take dye, no doubt! I'm leaving mine stock because I just love the contrast, but I (and many) have successfully dyed the yellow FRN on the Native Salt, so the white should take dye even better.

Native5 Lightweight CPM-REX45 Black DLC Blade White FRN C41WHBK5 GP Knives (USA) released in MAY 2022 is still in stock for $126.00.

I wish they would release the satin and DLC simultaneously. I would have waited for the Satin, if I knew it was coming out.

Any speculation on which future models GP Knives will be visiting with their white-on-Rex exclusives? I'd love a lil' Native, or maybe Sage.

Yeah, I might not have bought 2 Mint DLC N5's. Nah, I wouldn't have been able to stop myself.

I do like the contrast of the DLC blade and white handles. My Para 3 LW is white and satin.

Hmm, do I need another N5?
