America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.
Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

New zytel Natives are CPM 440V. The steel Natives are AUS 10. The older zytel Natives are Gin-1.
If I am not mistaken, I have seen the Native in BG42 recently, as well as in GIN-1 and CPM440.
I own a lightweight Native in GIN-1 and even though the knife is sharp and strong, the steel developed pits after I went 48 hrs without wiping it down. Needless to say, I am not pleased, but since the knife is used as a utility knife and for nothing more, I can only avoiding further, more serious rusting issues by taking better care of the piece.
