So...
The other day I sat down, and evidently my Native was riding in my pocket weirdly. Somehow, I managed to generate enough force to bend the pocket clip and shoot the screw the retains if across the room. I was able to get it reassembled with no particular difficutly, but the clip is pretty much shot.
Now, this isn't a thread complaining about Spyderco, for whom I have ample, fanboyish amounts of love for. Rather, its a question of whether I should just order the clip and fix it myself or if I should send it in. On the face of it, this seems like an easy question, but the main reason that I wonder if I shouldn't just send it in is because this is a knife that I haven't carried a whole lot despite owning it for some time. I bought an Endura shortly after buying this, and while I enjoy both, I just carry the Endura far more frequently. Anyway, I guess I am just wondering if this seems like a "normal" problem or if it is weird enough to pack my knife up and send it off.
