It just might be one of the best Spydercos ever!!
I took off the clip and pocket carry it. Nice grind and the VG10 is a really good performing steel. g
 
I love this knife. IMHO it is the best Native made up to today. I hope Golden will produce it's own CF Native4 with blade like 2009 Forum knife, add there low riding wire clip and that will be almost perfect.
 
hey SoLo,
you should take some pictures.:eek:
i ain't got a camera so i have camera envy.:o

very cool
i am edc'ing mine.
i like the Native FFG. razor outta da box
nothing wrong with Carbon Fiber
all good
buzz
 
Not to harsh your mellow, but I didn't care for Native IV. I like the FRN version better than the CF and like the 2009 Spyderco Forum Native version best of all. It has a FFG blade and FRN handle (in purple.)

buzz, it's just a crappy 7.5MP powershot cannon, point and shoot jobbie. I set the macro on and shoot about three of each shot then pick the best of the three to load to photobucket, then it's just linking the pix.

It's easy, I'm no Coop for sure.... :cool:

I do not have one to compare, but carbonfiber vs FRN???

Carbonfiber wins every time! :p :D
 
I just got one of these in the mail today along with the last two of the Kopa series.

The Native 4 CF is a very aesthetically pleasing knife. My only minor quibbles are that there is a bit of grittiness on opening it and the blade is not centered. Even though I got a good deal on the Native (actually on all of them) it bugs me when the blade is not centered on a knife this expensive. The Kopas are absolutely perfect.
 
You can always MAKE your deep carry wire clip.

Bevel the screw heads a bit to get them to match the height of the handle.

But it works GREAT!

I could not possibly agree more with this statement.
BH49 speaks truth!

I only wish I could have bought a second one to keep as a backup.
