There was a manix released I believe 2018 as a sprint with layered cloth making up the g10 and a DLC S90V blade. I don’t think it was sold as camo but was green brown and black. The randomness of the layering worked well and I think with different colors it could be a neat replacement.

I think that was called burl.
Camo done with zome could maybe work too.

For the digi camo, I’m thinking we can get an orange g10 backspacer. That might be cool.

it was just brown and black and most people around here had only negative to say about it’s appearance. it wasn’t my favorite, but i would’ve carried it happily. i also didn’t care for the brown handle on my xhp manix, but it’s grown on me.

There are a lot of aftermarket G10 backspacers for some models, like the PM2. They're usually around $20.

I am against the idea of a Camo pattern that requires paying a royalty. I am tired of paying big up charges for mossy oak and real tree.

I want the current Camo in other colors. A snow camp or blue camo would be cool.
Agreed!

Well, my first Spydie was digicamo PM2. I would say that we can keep today´s digi camo pattern but just mix the colours a bit.
Instead of black, white, grey (or whatever the combination is), lets have it in some crazy colours like blue, brown, black and light blue, something like this.

Or maybe something like gecko paracord?

I wouldn’t be upset if they just did away with it altogether. Definitely my least favorite pick for scales.

Personally I'm not interested in camouflage knives.
Black is good enough for me. Also dark earth tones.
