Please could we move on from the brown G10 and offer us some better colors.
The brown G10 is one reason I keep putting off buying a BS flipper. It would look really nice with black G10 I think.
Thank you,

It worked pretty well turning my grey scales black. (Note that I personally like grey, but I had tried to do an odd half and half pattern with the dye so when I was selling the knife a solid black seemed a much safer choice).

Thanks Joshua. I have not come across this product in my country and am also reluctant to order it. Anyway, thanks for recommending.

It's just basic cloth dye - I'm sure there's an equivalent product available. :)

I'd really like to see some Navy Blue, or some kind of deep blue. Also some more bright green would be cool.
