    Functions more like a Paramilitary 2 than a Native
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2018*

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 way to avoid this and flick it closed, the blade often bounces off the blade stop  and remains even more open than if the choil had hit your finger. Overall, I find the choil issue to be completely overblown.The blade movement was a little stiff at first and the blade wouldn't drop shut under its own weight. Many compression lock knives are like this when new. One drop of oil and a very slight loosening of the main pivot made it as flickable and drop shutty as my well tuned PM2.  The action is very smooth with zero blade play. Love it.18 Month Update: I've carried it 5 days a week on averag as my office EDC, and love it more than ever.  I removed the clip and carry it loose in my front pocket along with a minimalist wallet. Very discreet with no exposed clip to scratch against my car, furniture,  etc. The S30v steel is holding up well, and took a nice mirror edge with a Lansky sharpener. Easy to sharpen and touch up this blade with a leather strop. The thick blade stock and full liners make this knife laterally stiff and very functional for prying tasks. The Lil Native is so satisfying to flick, and the ergos are perfect for the middle finger Spydie flick. I've since picked up a BM Bugout and a Para 3 Lightweight,  but neither are as discreet or easy to carry around the office.

    Can't  remember the last higher end knife I disliked this much
  

*by S***K on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2019*

I really wanted to like this knife. I own several Spyderco, but I pretty much hate this one. The good is that it is a quality blade in nice s30v that is perfectly centered. Also it is made in their US plant. Now for the bad. The blade is super thick like you will need to use a 2.5 in. blade to chop down a tree. I have very small hands and even I find the handle too small to be comfortable. On top of that the only hold for this knife is choked way up but there's absolutely  no jimping on the school or the spin. I can see myself sliding up onto the blade insanely easily. The texture of the g-10 is a complete pocket shredder, especially  with a pocket clip so tight. I have not had problems with the wire pocket clips like that before. Too top that off the bored out g-10  on the side opposite the clip was bored out poorly and is very sharp around the clip hole. First Spyderco  I own that I hate this much. I have cheap knives I like more than this. If you like this blade shape and general look try the Chapparal instead because it fixes most of the flaws I found with this one and you get cts-xhp steel.

    My new favorite pocket knife.
  

*by 3***G on Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2018*

I like a smaller pocket knife; dragonfly, Case small trapper, Case pen and tuxedo, I kept doing back to carrying my orange dragonfly.  Even took the wire clip off.  I liked it so much that Ive had a G-10 dragonfly on my wishlist.  Was about to put it in the cart when I noticed the lil' native.  The dragonfly's been hanging out at the gym and turned into the lil' native. Spyderco should of called it the bulldog or gave it some other cool name.  Fatten up your dragonfly and you have the lil' native.  You can't tell much difference in the size other that the lil' native is heavier.  Its my new favorite pocket knife.
