It was offered in blue G-10 as a special run. 200 for collectors, 300 marked for Blade Forums, 200 not marked. Most were partially serrated IIRC.

If you can get one makes a great user. I carried one as my edc untill recently when I got something better.

Lets just say Wagner/Spyderco, green/black G-10, footprints, compression lock...

Good luck with the search. Check at BFC and KFC for sale forums and eBay. They show up every once in a while.



There's a fine line between "it's a hobby" and mental illness.

Found a Collector's Club on eBay:

Hi Lsaulog, Good Eye. That is outdated info however-HA! I just bought it. I love Natives big time-and the forerunners the Blackhawks and Renegades.

BTW-I hope you snag that Pink Cricket for Kahz. Whatcha going to trade her for it? You two could meet at the Mason-Dixon line; about half-way from Florida and Illinois.

It looks like the Native must have been offered in black G-10 at some point. I found this image in my collection of one, it likely came from ebay. Have a look.

I hate to disallusion you Jeff <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>, but I think you'll find that is the back of one of the shell inlayed G10 Natives. The only plain G10 Native was the blue Bladeforums model.

Thanks Clay,

That makes sense, but I hadn't thought of it being the backside. I assumed that they would be blue on both.

Cheers, Jeff.
