Is there something smaller than a Military made with 440V or 10V?

In a small pocket blade I really like the idea of superior edge retention. Does anybody make a small pocket-sized folder out of one of these CPM steels that appear to do so well at not giving away molecules?

The Native has a good feel and a hefty blade also. Small enough to be really pocketable.
It's a lockback tho, and I think the Military/Starmate are liner-locks...means something to some people.

I got the combo edge version, but am considering a plain-edge version (cuz it's easier to remove those molecules) if I can modify the swedge (maybe, that's on another thread).
 
You can't beat the BF Native. Do a search for it in the Spyderco forum and see the good things that have been said about it.
 
Darrel Ralph uses CPM420V on his small Apogee, just over 3" with a flat grind and wicked sharp.

Well, I guess I've been on another planet or something. The BF Native looks like just what I'm after. How many of them left?

How about the Kershaw Random Task? You get 440v, plus the nifty torsion bar assisted opening mechanism! What`s not to like?
