I think the knife is perfect the way it comes! If you want to experiment with Rit dye on the scales and paint the standoffs to your liking ....the option is there. :)
Looking forward to the Native 5 DLC and hopefully BOTH versions of the Shaman!

The scales are so much better looking with Black DLC, no problems with Jade on black at all now that I have it in person.
As for the two standoffs I was thinking of just plugging the threads and dipping them in Ferric Chloride.
There is of course always the aftermarket for standoffs which maybe Spyderco figures will take care of those who want something a little different just like Spyderco does not hog the custom clip and scales market.
I do wish Spyderco would take that market though, not because I want to harm what others are doing but because $80.00 dollars is allot just for scales as I have seen.
Yes I do understand people customizing have to get more to cover small time operations expenses but Know with Spyderco’s ability to manufacture they could do it both better and less expensive if they wanted to.
Chances are though the market is too small to justify tooling etc....
