Here is a pic of the Natives that I currently have. I have another C41P SS handled plain edge on the way. Now to get those elusive blue handled models.

That's a nice collection you've got there! But I think you need more SE's:D . I'm really liking the bottom two.
 
My collection of Natives is similar, except that you have about 10 more than me. :thumbup:
 
man i, really want a native 3. i like how the belly of the blade is bigger on the native 3.
 
is that one on the bottom right the rootbeer one? what are the 2 with smooth imprints/grooves on the handle. (third row down, right and left)i have never seen those before.

Tony,
Yes bottom right is the rootbeer. The row you are questioning are the native III's.

I would guess between $80 to $100 depending on who and where you purchased one from.

Good looking collection! The one I have, the "First Generation" was actually assembled by Camillus I understand. It's serrated and marked "440A." Perhaps the original "Wal-Mart Special?" Not sure. But they can be gotten cheap, if you're looking to add another you could probably find one on eBay cheap. Mine's perfectly decent and was my first Spyderco. Of course, it doesn't have high end steel.

I love the Native II Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association knives. I have two Delicas in them. Didnt know they did The Native the same way.
 
sffar, those are the Blue Ridge Knives (BRK). I will have to get one in PE just to have the "first" Native. Will probably pick one up here shortly. Looking at few others. I'm partial to the plain edge models, not to keen on the serrated ones. I've had to make some exceptions as some variations only came with serrated blade. Still looking for blue G-10 handled PE Native, Tan Operation Enduring Freedom and a blue FRN Native III with no blade etching (sterile blade).
