That "Sea Change" Pearl Veneer G10
Any new news on what the seashell-surface G10 as used on Spyderco's Vesuvius prototypes is going to be called, what else it might show up on, degrees and patterns of coverage, or estimated production schedules?
Sal mentioned at least a passing thought of doing the Shabaria that way. A Dragonfly-size gentleperson's knife done that way would also be "cool."

I haven't seen or felt such a thing to be sure, but I think the pearly surfaces should have flutes milled into them both for visual contrast and for traction.

Hi Sal,
Oh well, I had to try. <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
If you ever reissue the Jot Singh Khalsa, it would be a good candidate for white G10 Shell scales. Then it would look more like his custom pieces.
Here are some Khalsa scan urls with Charoite scales the illustrate the idea:

One question I forgot to ask about Temperance: Will it have green G10 scales like the prototype?
