Comments

TO: Very good edge out of the box, which is important given the type of steel used. S110V is a very durable steel but is fairly difficult to sharpen, but once there, holds an edge well. It’s what makes this knife.
I like the handle, simple, lightweight and serviceable, nothing fancy.

BonyT: I’m a longtime fan and carrier of the Spyderco Military folder with CPM S110V blade steel—quite simply the finest knife steel on the planet, with edge retention like no other formula. The Military Model also features Spyderco’s rugged, textured G-10 handle scales—super durable—and a smoother action than any non-assisted folder I’ve ever held, easily opened and closed with one hand. But the truth is, carrying in the service or even while camping is just a different thing than everyday carry. So I decided to look to something a bit shorter and lighter.

Not willing to compromise on the blade steel, I first considered Spyderco’s Para Military 2 and Para 3, both of which distill the best of the Military Model into a more compact package. But I ultimately settled on the Native 5 Lightweight, which offers the same superior CPM S110V steel in a full-flat grind blade, but also with a weight-reducing injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle option that the Para Models don’t have. The net result is a knife which, when folded, is a full 1 1/2” shorter than the Military (4” versus 5 1/2”) at half the weight (2.5 oz versus 4.3 oz), with the same...

sparky: Spyderco has always been a top notch knife maker. The native 5 was originally produced for sale at big box stores. And the rest is history. Possibly one of the most reproduced knives on the market. Fortunately, most are made by Spyderco in what they call sprint runs, with different handle or blade material, or grind. Some undoubtably collectable. You can't buy a better made, compact, every day carry tool for the price. It will impress you, and anyone who knows anything about knives. Note: the FRP handle is lighter than the G 10. The CPM s110v blade will probably hold an edge longer than any other. Difficult to sharpen as a result, but, Spyderco will do it free with $5 for return shipping.

Chaz Turbino: The S110V steel is exceptional, but they used the cheapest FRN grips they could find. My Delica 4 has FRN grips, but somehow Spyderco made those FRN grips feel higher-end with a grainy texture and extra heft from the steel liners. This Native 5 is only about 2-3 grams lighter than the Delica 4, but the balance is way off. The blue color also isn't my favorite as it is too light. I wish they'd allow the S110V to go on a black handle Delica 4. The bulk of the weight is felt in the blade, while the Delica 4 is more balanced. After looking more closely at the specs and performance of the "super steels", I'm inclined to go with S35VN for a better balance of edge retention and ease of sharpening. The blade is great though, it came out of the box razor sharp like other Spydercos. I'm just not a fan of this overall package. Throw on a better feeling and looking FRN handle with black as a color option, with a black clip, and I would change my mind.

Albert: The Spyderco Native 5 lightweight is a nice, every day carry (EDC) knife. The handle is made of fiber reinforced nylon (FRN) with s pattern that enhances your grip. Some people complain the FRN feels "cheap," but I like it for EDC because it is light, strong, and has a good grip. The Native 5 with a black handle has s35vn (an excellent premium steel in its own right) for its blade. The dark blue handle is for a blade with s110v steel, which can be heat treated to give a high hardness and amazing edge retention so that you don't have to sharpen it often under normal use, which is good, because this steel is a challenge to sharpen. s110v steel also is supposed to be highly corrosion resistant. I've included this knife in my EDC rotation, and it opens gradually and easily with the Spyderco hole, though I need two hands to close it due to the lock back. It came sharp, and it cut through everything I tried - cardboard, rope, a plastic box, etc. I have yet to need to sharpen it. I like it is so light that it disappears in my pocket, and the Native 5 has a nice shape with no gaps or rough edges.
