How to disassemble and maintain the Spyderco Native Chief Pocketknife

Today, we'll take apart a knife that's very easy to take down, the Spyderco Native Chief.

"Swings in a lubricated manner" Lmaooooo 🤣

[@jamesbarisitz4794]

Nice straight forward build. Thanks Spyderco and BatNick! 😃

[@brocstauffer4204]

I’m so excited for this review!!!

[@clintonlewis1663]

Looks like a cool knife.

[@ocomegashadowstacking5886]

Really nice Spyderco knife!!! :D

[@stefanwolf88]

I am pleased to see that the surface finish of the locking components of this USA produced knife is better then the Japanese produced Spyderco knives.

Oh lordy thank you nick. I'm putting a mirror polish on my Rex 45 model

[@R1NR4N]

This might be the one knife I’d actually take over my Spyderco Stretch.

Loves this video made me laugh!

[@alexanderbertallo1995]

Thanks for sharing...

Where do I find that black winged torx driver. Having trouble locating it.

[@soulzzplaysgames]

It looks a bit like a slim version of the Shaman, just without liners, a different lock and a little more grip on the g10.

Hey Nick! How’s your Saturday going?

[@AlterMacGyver]

I played alto sax for 8 years but lucky for most people I got p good and lived in a house. I can't imagine having the confidence to pick it back up in an apartment though, it'd mean making my existence known and that'd be bad for my "creepy goth neighbor who may be either a witch or a murderer" vibe

[@LRJ88]

Has Spyderco loosened up on their "DON'T YOU EVER TAKE APART YOUR KNIFE OR YOUR WARRANTY IS VOID NO MATTER WHAT" stand on all of their knives? I didn't quite expect this to be as easy to take apart as it was.

[@hunterevans7622]

Yup! Now you can take them apart, and as long as you don’t cause any issues with the dis/reassembly, the warranty still covers everything.

[@LRJ88]

@@hunterevans7622 Is this retroactive to older models as well or just the newer ones?

[@hunterevans7622]

I’m pretty sure it’s retroactive.

[@LRJ88]

@@hunterevans7622 I hope so, this is great news in that case, it's one of the main reasons i've been on the fence about many Spydercos before. My PM2 could use some love though.

[@WilliamMancel]

At least your neighbor isn't learning the violin (poorly). The sound of a cat slowly being tortured to death, or fingernails dragged across a chalkboard, is probably close to what that would sound like.🤯😱🎷🎻🔇😂

[@hunterevans7622]

I had to listen to my sister learn the violin in our house. To this day I absolutely abhor that instrument.

[@thomash4578]

Neighbors really need to be considerate

[@jonathanrogers9961]

i have kinda gotten away from spyderco, really like the chief though

[@alextsukada4013]

In the thumbnail I thought it was manix size.

[@hugedickerinokripperino5299]

Reminds me of a slightly bigger kershaw leek without the spring assist

[@ibanez7412]

Three thumbs down???? These guyes must hate sax....

[@easyki84]

"Uhm"

[@bushcraftjoe5961]

First?
