Your favorite color combination?
Which exclusive/sprint color combination has been your favorite?
I like the REC Avocado, the DLT Green/Black (wish they'd do an endura or stretch), the DLT Purple/Black and I generally don't even care about how my knife looks.

The dark green from Knifeworks looks good.

The gray g10/superblue steel combo.
That gray g10 gathers a wear over time, combined with a patina’d steel is beautiful

Re: Your favorite color combination?
Since I have all the SNK exclusives I gues I'd have to say I like the red handles with DLC (black) blade
Honestly, that's ^ not really true though. I like variety, so I carry something different often

I am one of those who actually really like bunt orange.
Even more so when the REX 45 blades it comes with show some patina or the HAP40 blades patina and scratches on the soft SUS410 cladding steel..

Re: Your favorite color combination?
Just on some knives I own…
Knifeworks Forest Green.
Not a sprint but my Foliage Green G-10 Dragonfly. Possibly my favorite color ever!
I love my Gray G-10 diamond patterned Manix with Cru-wear, but I like the darker Gray G-10 on the Massad Ayoob sprint just a little more.
Greens & Grays and I’m in!

Re: Your favorite color combination?
While admittedly blad coatings can create interesting visuals, I don't like to have my blades coated, so color preference is mainly about handle color for me.
And though I'm not picky, and enjoy a range of colors, I mostly gravitate to neutral colors, both because I like them and they genrally blends in nicely with the color of my pants;
- Gray (like the Chap LW)
- Blue (like the k390s. I'd love to try something in blue denim micarta, but no luck so far)
For outdoor high contrast is fine, so the yellow salts are right up my alley. I also have a soft spot for hi viz orange, like we get on the Cutlery shoppe exclusives.

Re: Your favorite color combination?
Cutlery Shoppe's Orange scales and Black DLC blade and St Nicks Knives Red Scales and Black DLC blade are my favorites of the OG offerings.
If going with after market then I shift to Micarta in bright color with black blades

Re: Your favorite color combination?
I love the British racing green of the zdp sekis and st nicks is the only DLC combo that appeals to me…
but any color micarta on a plain blade is what REALLY does it for me…with special honors going to the m4 shaman. The slight green tint to that micarta is my favorite thing that’s come straight from the factory.

Re: Your favorite color combination?
I’d I had to pick one? The DLT ladybug motif with the black hardware and coated blade is the most striking to my brain.
Teal/DLC is quite nice.
I suspect that a DLC Native Salt would also make my top list, hopefully we see one someday!

Re: Your favorite color combination?
Marbled carbon fiber from fradon safe is the top for me.
Also the od green from dlt and st nicks red and black comes in second place.
