I think more options are great. I may be the only one but I would like to see the 2 different colored G-10 on each side of the handle (i.e. strider or hinderer designs)

I would love a Military to have black G-10 on one side and orange on the other. Just my .02 cents.

:spyder: I love the FG handles, wish there were more. A foliage green yojimbo? dream knife, it'd go nicely with my red handled yojimbo dream trainer :rolleyes: :) :spyder:

I don't like FG. Sold my D2 Military for that reason. I'd like to see more discrete colors, like the D/E4 Wave, ZDP D/E4, like dark blue (the new Police would be the best knife to start with this color). Black is my all time favorite handle color.

I love the FG stuff, but do see a surprising amount of FG in the works. I wouldn't mind additional colors, like tan or dark blue.

Its good to get away from the tactical look , specially in utility folders , tends not to disturb the sheep .

I like the foliage green and the way it seems to blend in against other colors, but I would also like to see some additional colors. I especially would like to see some more of the subdued colors like burgundy, earth brown, navy blue, and "wave" blue-grey.

A denim blue would be good, but choosing a shade between "brand new" and "worn through" might be difficult. Yojimbo Smurfbone blue might be the best choice here.
