I noticed not many people have gone for lime green! A fluro colour might actually be kinda cool - in a strange and demented way :cool:

Too bad you were reffering only to G-10 or FRN. I would have chosen anodized titanium... ;)
So, I have chosen Royal Blue yet, umm... what's the difference between Navy and Royal Blue? :confused:

Navy- dark blue not unlike that of one of the navy uniforms like the kid on the crackerjack box has (I dunno what they're called, but I think it's an enlisted dress uni)

Royal- a lighter, brighter blue,not unlike the smurf color of the blue yoji.

I would love to see another drab green G10 handle on the para. It would be a good combo I would think.

I clicked royal blue but my vote would be for a nice deep purple.
someone brought it up here a few months ago & I thought it'd be pretty classy (& unexpected). probably look best on one of the little guys-
royal purple unlinered g10 SE D'fly anyone?

Haha! Two votes for purple in a row!!!


But since that has a snowball's chance in heck; how about the ole Coyote Tan that seems to be all the rage this season.

My choices matched David's in color and order! Never thought I'd see the Wednesday when that'd happen. Any other day, yeah, sure, but not the Wednesday.

Chocolate-covered Spyders would be very yummy! Figuratively. Literally, they'd taste like my blood. :eek:

My second choice would be Navy as I think the blue on the Yojimbo is just too darn bright and smurfy. :)

I'd be up for an orange handled Military, Caly 3, or Stretch II.... or all 3 :D Failing that an orange Endrua and/or Delica would work. I'm trying to talk myself out of the orange UKPK, love the knife, just wish it was the Caly 3 with a lock.

In reality, any color on it's own is not as interesting as the combination of color and texturing/patterning (similar to jens anso or even potterma's work)! Even the black color on the subcoms are more interesting due to the pattern embelishments. It would be nice to see something like that.

Come to mention it, YES! I must say that I love all the colors and didn't vote.
I, however, really like the yellow Salts - and I put the shiny clip from my orange Rescue 79mm on my Salt 1 and could NOT be happier with that color/clip combination. Black is good and so are colors...... :)

- best wishes, Jazz.
