Spyderco 2019 Lists: Delivered & Upcoming

The BladeHQ exclusive Native 5 with M4 steel, black dlc, and jade g10 has been popping up on the auction sites. Can’t be too long before the release.

For some reason I am very disappointed that Spyderco switched to a linerless design on the Native 5 though. Really going back and forth with myself over this one (doesn’t help that it’s priced at $160 I guess).

 

The linerless design is why I'm interested. I had the fluted cf version which also is linerless. Lightweight, balanced and still very solid feeling.

 

I was hot after a linerless G-10 model with S35VN when they first announced the design change. I've since moved on to other interests, but I agree regarding the appeal of the lack of liners.

 

I was reluctant on the liner less factor as well, but I couldn't pass the Native, a compact work knife, in such a great working steel. And boy, I was not disappointed. No issues without liners, it's a very solid feeling knife and comfortably lightweight

 

How I wish Spyderco would phase out S30V. So many designs I like but won't buy because of that. Gotta wait for sprint runs.

I really like those Abel reels Native 5's. If they made a walleye version my dad would probably have another heart attack. Alas, Abel is a fly fishing company and doesn't cater to walleye fishing.

 

Sorry if I'ma bringing up a topic that's been beat to death as I drop in only from time to time, but I'ma just wondering where the f&@$ the paysan is at. Anyone know, are we getting close? I heard early this year so....

 

According to my dealer, the delivery date it shows is the end of this month.

Of course after waiting as long as we have, I'll believe it when I see it!

 

Baited breath for sure

 

Would certainly like to fondle a Paysan but there's no way I'm going to buy one.

 

now that you are saying it, I wonder if anyone has thought about a knife rental business. For example, paying $20 plus two way shipping for renting a knife to fondle for two weeks.

 

It happens for high end watches, so I'm sure there is a cosierge service that does it, but I don't think even a paysan is above the minimum in value they would be looking at.

 

Question: who would be excited to acquire a natural G10 Shaman with M4? ;-)

 

Yes, but the Shaman really needs some CQI, especially to cut down the weight.

 

Not sure why all the hype about "overpriced" knives, or anything really. I won't get off on a rant but some people want what that 2ant and if they can pay for it what's it to anybody else. You wouldn't buy a certain knife above a certain price? piss off thent and don't put up the money, bit just spare us the financial wizardry routine about how you'll get it at a better price or such n such is crazy. Nice shot cost money, get over it. I swear if I hear " I'd never pay that Der der der",or "oh my sweet tight panties, does he know he could buy a sebenza with that kind of money"!? The hell outta here. People spend large amounts of money on all kinds of over the top shit, knives are no different.

 

A little birdie whisper something in your ear?

 

I would be so incredibly eager to buy one

 

I’d love a rex45 manix2.
