Should Spyderco Make the "Native Chief?"

  • Yes, but I'm a steel snob and a handle junkie--make it $$$$ or not at all.

I just waded through 832 posts regarding the Native.
832!

I wanted to find the picture of the Big Native that Coho posted above, but the picture doesn't appear any longer and Coho didn't leave an e-mail address.

Anyway, review this thread to see how much excitement the Native Chief, aka Native Talent, aka Native Son, aka Native American engendered.
 
Lets get this one going again.Native with a 3.5 in blade WOW!

I would love a bigger Native with S30V steel blade (just under 4").. but not the 3D Native style handle - original style handle please.
 
Looking at Coho's pic, I really, really want one just like the pic. A 3-D handle and the Native III blade shape would be great. Remember us left-handed people.
Ready to make a deposit now, what do you think Sal?

I'd like a wider blade and handle... not as slim as the one in Coho's pic. Keep the Native somewhat thick and stout like it is now - only bigger.

Handle in G10 with SS liners would be nice. I want a knife that feels like a tank. Imagine a Native tough like a Buck/Strider.
 
Yes,don't just stretch it out,make it a little wider too and keep the thinness.
 
I'm still waiting for the "Large Native" as well!

I bought the 3D Forum Native like I said I would, and even bought the Spyderhawk, although it was the non-Forum model with blue handle.

Yeah, I'll pay full price for the "Large Native" if it comes to pass close enough to the large G-10 proto we've been tempted with.

My limit would be around $250 or so, depending on how far from the proto it was like. Keep the price around $140 and I'd probably get two. I'd want to carry one then, if it were MBC qualified.

The only changes I'd make to that prototype would be a Boye Dent and perhaps a steel liner if necessary for MBC. Colors: black, olive or dark blue would be my preferences. Truth is, any color G-10 would do if it became a reality!

Also, the "large Native" in FRN would work for me (I started this poll ages ago). Keep the price under $100 and I'd probably buy three: a plain edge and a serrated to "put away," and a plain edge to carry. :)

Karl, ever the Native Fan
 
How about makeing this the 2004 forum model for both forums and have every one that wants it pay a deposit up front and nor start production until at least 300 orders have been placed.
