How can you clean the FRN on a White Endura? This knife is new but like most of the whites that I've seen they have picked up dirt and stains from being handled for several years. Is there a safe cleaner to use to brighten them up and keep them looking presentation clean?

Second question. For those that EDC the Native. Are there any advantages to the Native over the Delica or vice versa? Do Native users feel they are more suitable to self defense or utility or any other uses over a Delica? I have my first Native and I must say it's a great overall design. Blade is thicker, handle is thicker. No liners, so that compensates for the additional weight of the blade and lock. Tip seems less strong than a saber ground Delica. It's a little slick compared to a Delica 4 in FRN. What are your thoughts?
 
I wonder how something like Simple Green and an old toothbrush would work to clean the FRN up??? I would think that should be safe and not damage anything.
 
I bought a well used yellow ladybug that was very grungy. Hot water, dish soap and a nail brush worked wonders on it.

Native vs Delica is a matter of tastes and needs. To be honest, I'm not a great fan of either but I do occasionally carry a Native. I prefer midlocks with 50/50 choils, which the Delica lacks, but the Native's Spyderhole is not fully exposed and the blade is too damn busy for my taste.
