Amazon Kunde: Beste Messer dass ich je hatte!

a.h.: Das Messer an sich ist qualitativ i.O.
Leider kam das Messer nicht originalverpackt bei mir an.
Das Messer lag ohne die üblicherweise Verwendete Platikverpackung im leider zerbeulten Karton.
Da hat irgendwer das Messer schon einmal ausgepackt und ohne die Plastiktüte wieder in den Karton
gelegt.

J. WildmanJ. Wildman: Wow what a great little knife! I bought mine with a black blade and the standard G10 scales.
Is this the perfect knife? No, but it's pretty damn good. For me, I use it daily. I work for a company that requires you to use safety knives, but gives you tasks that require more than those playschool knives are intended to do. So I bought this little beauty. I didn't want anything shiny so the black blade was a must..I also didn't want anything that when opened would draw attention because the blade was to big too big. So for me this was the perfect knife. Small enough to not draw attention, but strong enough to run with some of the edc knives I switch in my rotation. This Lil native just delivers and I find myself carrying it on my off time from work as well.
So yes it's a bit pricy for the size of knife you are getting, but don't let this little guy fool you.. It is a work horse. Worth every penny!!

Dave: The Lil Native is a great little knife right out of the box. The blade has a nice stock thickness yet has a great slicing-edge due to the fantastic full flat grind behind the edge. The S30V has a satin finish that was beautifully done. This finish also aided in knocking off any sharp edges you might find around the spidey hole. Just an excellent finish on this blade. I like the shape of the blade as it's a scaled-down version of its bigger brother. I like Spydercos without the huge thumb ramp on the back of the blades, but that's just a personal preference. This is razor-sharp out of the box, and overall, just fit and finished nicely. The blade is perfectly centered in the handle and locks up solidly with no side to side or vertical play at all. It's action is a tiny bit stiff coming from the factory for flicking open, however, a disassembly, cleaning, and lube with the right pivot tuning will have this blade flying out no problem - it's not far from that right now after a few days of opening. It already drops nicely from full lock using the compression lock to a closed position. Great design for single-handed opening and closing. There are a couple jimps on the blade spine near...

Ricardo GRicardo G: Estoy muy contento con mi compra, vale cada peso pagado, es una excelente herramienta de corta para diferentes usos y el filo le dura bastante bien, la he usado para cortes muy finos y tambien algo de uso rudo con madera. Recomiendo totalmente el producto, yo uso a diario un pocket knife para edc y este ha sido uno de los mas usados que tengo.

Cruiser: Perfect knife for those looking for features of a PM2 in a more concealable and less intimidating package. It will replace my Dragonfly 2 in the role of stealth EDC that fits in a change pocket. The Lil Native has better steel than the VG10 DF2, and a safer lock that keeps your fingers out of the blade path when closing. The Lil Native is vastly more flickable, it has no sharp edges in the thumb hole, has much better ergonomics, and is much more robust and useable than the DF2. In short, the DF2 feels like a toy in comparison. Granted, the Lil Native is heavier and more expensive.

Some reviewers complain of the lack of jimping on the blade, and the way the choil can hit your finger in the lock when closing. Neither of these issues are of any significance to me. The G10 scales are just as grippy as those on my PM2, and the ergos are excellent on the Lil Native, making jimping unnecessary. Furthermore, the blade shape and lack of jimping give it a much less tactical look that is less likely to raise eyebrows in public. It is a stylish gentleman's knife. Yes, the choil can hit your finger in the lock, causing the blade to not close fully. However, if you do grip the lock in a...

Neato: I only carry knives that will fit in the watch pocket of my jeans (with no clip). I carried an original Native (with clip) for years but retired it after finding that I almost never needed a knife that large. I replaced it with a Dragonfly, and have been carrying it for ~4 years now. Never thought I'd find something I liked better until this came along. Similar to my ol' beloved Native but smaller and better built. I love it, but....

It came with sharp corners on the edges of the spine and lock bar. The G10 scales come "slab-sided" with somewhat sharp corners all around the periphery, including near the hole in the blade. I had to put a slight radius on the blade/lock bar edges, smooth the corners of the scales all around, and radius the area of the scales near the hole in order to create clearance for my thumb to get to it. It's fantabulous now, but did take a bit of work.
