My pic of my Native 5 Moonglow. Bright enough to read :)

I love my FFG Natives.
I really like the light color and smooth surface of Moonglow. I can only wish that Spyderco would make a sprint with light color of smooth G10 & nice Carpenter steel.

I've been following your posts over at the Spyderco forums Roman, man I gotta say your taste in Natives has piqued my interest quite a bit.

This picture of yours I can frankly say I haven't seen anything so Spydie cool. Damn fine collection you got there man, thanks for sharing :)

Shame I missed the forum Native =(
 
Sweet knife though, shame my funds are going to go to a fluted Ti Native
Ti Fluted N5 is a one sweet knife, but you can flip a coin and gamble: get a moonglow and wait may be a year for the next batch of Ti Fluted. It is difficult choice. Like you I would go with Ti Fluted. May be moonglow will be still available in couple month. About 700 supposed to be made. It is a lot for forum knife.

There is a chance to get another Forum Native in 2013, just keep your eyes open.

The Moonglow Natives have really captured my attention. Really need to pick one of those up.

Yeah I did think about it, but I figured the fluted Ti might be more difficult to get after a few months- since the fluted Mili has become extremely rare. I'm having major doubts if Spy will make another batch of the fluted Ti seeing as how difficult the tooling is for this knife.

I figured I'd buy the Ti Native now and buy the Moonglow on the bay at a premium :( in case the forum production runs out by then.

They're making another forum Native =O? Will it be the same or a different design?

Man Spy is making me a pauper, the CF N5 is going to be $160+ :(

Moonglow - $150
Fluted Ti - $235
CF - ~$170
G10 - $111

Collection total - ~$666

Wow! Looks like even the devil works in mysterious ways o_O

I hear you. There are no easy decisions when we have cash restrains. I also think that few month from now will be easier to find moon glow than Ti Fluted at half-decent price.
It is known that 2013 Spyderco Forum knife will be Native5, Most speculations that the handle will be molded plastic and S110V blade. But the knife supposed to be 2012 Forum knife, which didn't happened and forum knife project was moved to 2013. Let's hope that we will get at least one more new FFG Native this year.
Good luck with your collection
 
Yeah. I just bit the bullet and ordered the fluted titanium one. It's gonna be a user, I love my Native III, but I hate the lack of liners and pinned construction.
