Do I like it? Well, I just got a Pro-Tech Malibu after over a year of anticipation, and it lives up to the hype. It's a great knife. The trouble is, I've completely bonded with the Lil' Native, and I just can't give it up for another knife. For now I'm carrying two, but I'll tire of that, and when I do I think the Lil' Native will still be in my pocket.
I purchase the Lil Native's twin and overlooked Spyderco Cat. The size and shape are bassically identical but it is a liner lock with my favorite user steel CTS-BD1N. Thak You for the excellent review.
I have the all black Li'l Native. I love it. I sometimes go where I need a small knife and this one feels a lot more like a full sized knife than does the Scallion or even the Dragonfly, both of which I have and like. For the crazy places I even have a Chive.
Maybe this is the only non-lockback/liner/frame lock fidgety folding knife. I have been looking for axis lock or ball bearing lock knives with less than 6cm blade and this is the only one so far.
Nice review. I bought a cheap CRKT and it seems to be fine for my uses - opening boxes, cutting out my apples bad spots, and overall just fidgeting. This Spyderco is too good for my edc.
Great review Wes, I have this knife and I love it as my go to small knife. Never noticed the plunge line issue but I definitely feel the bounce on my finger when closing. As you said, not a deal breaker. Oh and nice shirt!
I don't know what happened to this channel but please come back. You are one of the few reviewers that don't smirk.
competes with my dragonfly and baby banter for carry-time in my 5th pocket
Love the ending conclusions and great video quality. Looking forward to some more.

Mine should be arriving today. Hopefully, it lives up to the hype...
My favorite small knives that I own are Spyderco Dragonfly 2 salt or cold steel tuff lite. Thanks for the vid 👍
It’s my favorite spyderco. It’s a BIG small knife. More jimping? Why do you want jimping? Has you finger ever slipped? Needless hotspots IMO.
Thanks Wes! I have the one in cruwear and I really dig this little knife... I want the one in Rex45...
Great knife for carrying in watch/coin pocket so far. I have the s30v version with back lock.

On roster it’s the REC and ST. NICKS Lil Native….just ordered the Blade HQ version.

Spyderco Native has always been one of the best models
Great review thank you!

I get that totally. Nothing wrong with carrying two, one as a beater.

Was yours drop shut out of the box? I have the regular black model and it does not drop shut.
I can’t quite remember, but I believe so. I usually break all my knives in and then adjust.
Where can I get this?
Never heard of the spyderco shaymen😂
No,go
