S110V is the one steel I avoid, just bad experiences with a PM2. The color made not difference to me.

personally i have no problem with "Blurpe" and have nothing against S110V. So all good with me.
I would like to see an DLC variant of the blurple.

Black scales are boring. Funny how some people think their masculinity is threatened by the color of a knife handle.

I have a bunch of funky colors. My yellow Native Salt is my favorite, followed by the red Para 3. I have a blurple PM2 but it's low on my list of favorite colors. Never was a lavender fan.
Boring is good for my EDC knives. Black and other dark subdued colors (British racing green, etc.) blend very well with clothing and disappear when clipped.

I like the yellow on the salt series because it gets used when I’m usually fishing or sailing so visibility is a good thing.

I like the black/stainless look. Subtlety is a lost art.

I'd definitely love to try S90V. I might like to try S110V. If it was green I probably would have bought a few in S110V already, but I understand I'm just kinda weird like that. The blurple pretty much means I'm going to buy new scales though.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

I like it. Thought this thread could use a pic...

Blurple fan here. S110V fan as well. Holds a coarse grit 'slicing' edge like few steels.
