Spyderco chief!

I would not buy one with that extreme swedge as it would constitute a double edged weapon in many places. But that's me.

 

[Stays Sharp]

Yes on that classic sexy Native line swedge please. Seems like 99% of Spyderco's lineup is now FFG (a good thing), but I welcome variety.

All the protos I've seen through the years has it... Long as it comes unsharpened it's good.

Naw, if it was ground like the normal native no one would mistake the swedge for an edge, it's pretty thick. Nowhere near an edge.

Give me a LW FRN version in 110V and I'll snag one!

 

[Wanimator]

In a heartbeat.

Give me a LW FRN version in 110V and I'll snag one!

This would be an amazing knife

Would like to see just a straight up xl version of the native 5. Like the manix 2 xl is to the regular manix 2. Native 5 and native 5 xl.

I cannot wait to see Shaman and Native Chief protos. Hopefully Wouter will be able to shoot them during Amsterdam meet.
I love my Natives5, but still missing an extra .5" of the blade.

 

[NeilB]

Would you buy one?

Not my pic

I would definitely buy this knife. It calls to me!

In fact, I'd like to have this blade in a Milie handle.

Edited to add: Got to have the swedge. Got to.

If it was ffg, it would be too close to an endura for me. I'd like it to keep the grind in that picture.

I have a FFG regrind. Looks great with residual Swedge. Doesn't look like a Delica either

 

[levs18]

That's an absolute winner. I'd buy one for certain.

The Shaman is a disappointment. The last chance for a larger Native is the Chief. Hopefully with Power lock. No Swedge no deal.

 

[DocT]

If you want a larger Native, look at the Manix 2 Back Lock. I have both sitting here beside me.
