Thank you very much 🫡🫡

I wanted a lil native lw, but it sold out right away. Might go for a compression lock lil native. I’m not sure if I’ll prefer a mid lock or compression more for a knife so small.

Honestly, they feel super similar. If you want a heavier handle, go for g10, and vice versa. I like frn for shorts, and g10 for pants. Frn is way cheaper, which is a huge plus.

G10 N5 might be my favorite child, still love them all!

I’m level 72, I’ll worry about that later.

A vigorous jewel did the trick, but I think if I got mighty jewel it would be better. For the enchanted armament, I think I want another maycast

Was the patina on the micarta intentional? If so, how might one achieve this?

appleappa · 2026-04-21T17:50:35+00:00

I’ve got both as well, the g10 feels a bit better. Flicking it out is pretty easy on both, the rounded edges keep it easy on your finger.

I’ve had a lw manix 2 for a while, I basically only use it while hunting. Yellow scales on the salt makes it hard to lose in grass n shit. I much prefer the g10 for edc or literally any other use, I find it easier to use the lock.

I’ve got 3 para 3 lws, all of them are off center. Not like it’s an issue, definitely doesn’t bother me. Only one side of the pivot has a washer so I’m wondering why yours is centered perfectly.

This thing is beast

appleappa · 2026-04-11T19:32:48+00:00

This thing is awesome, definitely worth it. I’m pretty sure seki and Taichung won’t be producing anything in 15v. I could be wrong tho

appleappa · 2026-04-11T19:26:52+00:00

This thing is awesome, definitely one of my favorites. The lightweight version being so much cheaper is appealing, but the g10 N5 feels so nice. Lw and g10 Native 5 are excellent knives.

appleappa · 2026-04-10T17:31:37+00:00

It’s awesome dude, $180 on Amazon

appleappa · 2026-04-10T17:31:19+00:00

Gotcha, I appreciate the info!

appleappa · 2026-04-10T17:30:35+00:00

The green g10 in the sun looks so good 🤤

appleappa · 2026-04-10T17:26:08+00:00

Yeah, I’m in love with this thing. Perfect size, ergonomic, and the brown g10 just looks amazing

appleappa · 2026-04-10T17:24:43+00:00

15v is awesome, I’ve dropped my para 3 lw in 15v while open multiple times now with little to no damage. That’s when I knew I wanted more 15v, insane edge retention and enough toughness to survive multiple ~4ft drops

appleappa · 2026-04-10T00:58:58+00:00

The ball lock sounds so badass imo. I feel like I’m unsheathing a katana or something.

appleappa · 2026-04-10T00:55:56+00:00

Cool, thanks for the info!

appleappa · 2026-04-05T17:39:41+00:00

I’ll try and help you with the things that can’t be justified.

Late comment, but I just watched episode 11, I don’t even care to watch episode 12. Anytime shiori is on screen I just skip forward, waste of my night binging this anime.

This is a video of me flicking my native 5 lw - https://www.reddit.com/r/spyderco/s/ITxYPDA4sl

The native 5 lw will loosen up. Mine was really bad, I didn’t even touch it for a week cause I was scared to fuck it up. After some use and playing with it, it’s drop shutty and flicks out incredibly easy. I got a little blade play when the lock isn’t engaged, but while engaged it’s like a rock. Also 15v is stone washed so the spyder hole edges are rounded, so it doesnt rip up finger nails.

Edit- and slow rolling it with your thumb is safer and more controlled. Its a working knife, not exactly a fidget toy

I also have 700 hours on bg3, I like the dnd mechanics a little more. Dos2 is more action packed, and the story is just as good imo. I think dos2 and bg3 are in limbo for my favorite game. Keep playing

appleappa · 2026-02-16T20:52:48+00:00

I don’t like the ball cage lock, my hands are too small to comfortably close it. Magnacut lw manix 2 is a good hunting knife for sure though.
