I got a blue and a green Delica. Both colors are wonderful. I've been carrying the green one more, but the blue is my favorite. Photos of the purple in sunlight are tempting me to get a purple Endura. I have a SE Pacific Salt, but no Enduras so far. I don't see myself as a collector. The problem is the desire to own more cool knives. It's a disease, I tell you!

I voted for green, but I like the blue, brown, and gray a lot too. I hope they at least keep green and blue in the lineup, those are my two favorites.

Green and Purple are two of my favorite colors so naturally I got an Endura and Delica in each color. Green got my vote for this thread. I get the occasional comment about carrying a purple knife and a few years ago it bothered me when I carried a Purple Benchmade Griptilian around. Now, I decided if I like a color, I don't care what people say, even the comment a couple of days ago that my purple Delica is a "Barney" knife. Ha! Life is too short to not enjoy knives in different colors.
You can't display a toad in a fine restaurant like this! Why, the good folks here would go right off the feed!

I guess I will have to vote for brown a few more times to get it caught up.

I wonder if u could swap scales and make a combination color of a knife?
Like blue and grey or purple and green.
Just a thought.
I also think these new colors seem less threatining, so NKP wouldn't freak out at the sight of them.

Could those who own them post more pictures in different lighting conditions please?
I've looked at a lot of pictures and the shades seem to vary a lot between pictures and I can't decide which one I like the most consistently.

I'm pumped for the Grey I've got inbound, but I was very surprised not to see an orange model, given the popularity of the orange ladybug and Military, as well as its obvious utility as a color for woods and water.

Sure no problem!
Incandescent light (typical light bulbs in home lavatory):
Fluorescent light (typical office building lighting):
Natural light (outside overcast/cloudy day):
Absence of light (LOL):
All images displayed were taken with iPhone 3Gs. Not fantastic, but hopefully good enough.

I picked gray. Remove the black from the pocket clip and the knife becomes less visible clipped to the pocket of jeans and other light clothes.

Happy to do it for you. I do find it amazing how well this demonstration illustrates the importance of lighting in photography. I think my eyes see these knives as they appear in the sunlight photo regardless of the light source.
They are colorful, you will enjoy them if you like bright colors.
Thanks,
