I like Falco's "Dark Aqua Blue", or maybe something brighter like a turquoise or a bright green-blue. I also would like red.

I also like grey-still neutral but a change from black.

Sal, have you decided on the colors yet? Or are you close?

Because the emphasis is on price: FFG at an FRN price. We already have the FFG in G10, but it's twice as much as the saber flat-ground FRNs.

We think we've got our colors down. Now we're waiting to see if our plastics guy can match them.

Will the FFG version only be available in the new colors or might a black one be available too?

What does "it" refer to exactly?

Will you inform us of the colors prior to the release of the FFG Delicas/Enduras?

Sal, If you don't want to share the potential colors yet, could you just let us know how many colors you plan to produce?

Im not sure if this has been said before..but will these colors be sprint runs or regular production? Do I need to jump on it if I think I may want one or will there be time to wait around and get one a while later once its convinient for the bank account? :D

We're going to test 5 colors.

They're not a sprint, but they are a test. Some might be reproduced if the market says so. Others, not.

We're still a ways aways from production. We'll post colors and pics when they're ready to ship.

Hi D1omedes,

"it" will be the discussion on the future plans for the colors and variations, once we see your reaction.

I'd like to thank all of you for your input. It has been a very useful thread for us.

I'm a recent FRN convert-yeah I started with the expensive handle materials and worked way down, but... FRN is my favorite. Great stuff! Thanks for letting us help out.

Will the FFG blade replace the old style blade, or will the FFG be a new model to see how it sells. FFG
