Confused about the dice...

#1

Post by Kylems11 »

So i am seeing on websites the handles of the dice being called glass woven cf in like a silver color and then i am seeing other pictures of the handles looking just like the domino. This will be a deal breaker for me as i will only buy if the handles will look like the dominos cf. Can someone clarify this for me please? Sal maybe...

The catalog says "cubic check" cf. Same as the Domino. I think the GPK pic has some glare on the scales making it look like that.

I think they're shipping in a couple days from certain retailers...we'll likely have real pictures soon enough. I thought they were going to be the same as on the Domino/Sage3. That second picture looks really washed out (Look at how indistinguishable the Spyder and blade markings are).

Just check out Mr. Blonde's pictures of the Dice on his website:

And posted here on the forum:

Hope that clears up the fact that the Dice's scale is identical to that of the Domino and the second gen versions of the Sage 3 and Szabo folder! Cheers, Radioactive :)
