Best $15 knife? Yes. Best bushcraft knife? That depends on who you ask but it may still be a yes cuz this thing is just that awesome. Even in pin...er magenta.

Well maybe not magenta.

Well my wife loves the color, so If I ever want to get her something, I know pink will win her over.

That and we're kids of the 80s... If you remember, Hot Pink and Black was 'in'. lol

I thought magenta was more purple. I'm a child of the 60's and 70's, pink for me is verboten. For the wife, that's fine of course.

Great knife, hideous color. I didn't realize Mora had done a collab. with Pepto-Bismol.

lol Well, it is the wife's knife. She now has the Pink Spyderco Native and the Pink Mora.

Oh trust me, it's been some work getting to this point.

The magenta has much too much red in it to be pink
A great color to notice if left lying around against grass or dirt

My lady loves the bloody thing
The first time I showed her feather sticks, she came home and practiced making feather sticks on carrots
And did not help with the cooking....

I prefer the shorter and narrower carbon in a grey handle with the red tops
The grey is more socialbly neutral than green and a lot less obvious than the Magenta
The grey sheath actually has the same tone color at night as the greeen sheath

My youngest, she has one in bright blue
Also a great color

Then you've done well! Perhaps you could give the rest of us tips....
