I've added quite a few new ones to my collection, but these are the last ones I could photograph before my camera died. Delica G-10, ffg blue Delica 4 and ffg blue Endura 4. The others are my regular Endura and Delica 4 and my older Endura 3 (which I still love and carry a lot).
Actually it's the other way round :) I had to reduce the saturation a little bit as I was shooting in bright sunlight with my light-tent. The bright light made the colors look really vibrant and my camera also tends to over-saturate a bit when shooting at good weather...
The interesting thing is that the colors seem to change a little bit depending on the angle you look at the handle.
Latest purchases: Orange Urban, SS Cricket and Bob Lum chinese folder came in yesterday :D
Kopa is waiting to be pimped by nice wooden scales (need to figure out how to replace the rivets) and the green Delica's clip is waiting to be polished..
Sorry 'bout the pseudo-artsy loss of focus in the pic.. :rolleyes:

Thanks!
Donut, that depends where I look at it. If I take the knife outside on a sunny day like the one I took the pics, the colours are very close to my picture. Indoors they look duller and not so vibrant. IMO the angle you look at the handle also affexts the colours. If I look from the lanyardhole towards the pivot,
the red and yellow do not seem as bright as when I look at the handle from straight above.
I guess it's the structure of the etching that influences its colour a little bit.
