Hi all. I read Sal's message about the new Native coming up soon. I'm, of course, drooling for this knife since ít's by far my favorite Spyderco knife. In fact, I already own one regular FRN Native plain and 2 Blue G-10 BF Natives plain.
Since there are a lack of pictures, I would like a detailed, or at least informative description of this new black G-10 piece. I understand that the pictures posted in BF of the Vesuvius have this shell inlay in the handle (which I believe is originally G-10 also), and it looks drop dead gorgeous. However, I've seen this handle in different colors except for black. Are these the shell inlays Sal was talking about, the same style? And if it is, how would it work with a black handle? If it isn't, could you explain to me then what shell inlays are like, and how do they affect the aesthetics of the handle?
Thank you,
