I would buy a toxic green endura or delica if they added it to their colors line.
Just wondered if a toxic yellow would be to similar to the salt series.

Toxic Green, yes, but not any Toxic Green. Make it GITD and I'm sold! :D

I don't care if it's produced in Powder process Vascowear ran at RC 62 in one of Sal's ergonomic handles and hand signed by him. I wouldn't touch it with two 10 foot poles.

No toxic stuff here.

I wouldn't let it in my house even if Kristi herself was delivering it! :) That is indeed saying a lot.

Don't hold back Joe, tell us what you really think. :eek: :D

On the other hand, would you be ok with lime green, as on the Jester here? Or, to poorly paraphrase Shakespeare, would "a rose by any other name smell as bad". ;)

To me, they're the same color and, at least when combined with an uncoated blade, it's a reasonable alternative to orange and yellow for situations where high visibility is an asset.

I never do it seems. I've learned how to channel my inner a$$#0!& very well indeed. :)

Paul, If you were talking about a 70 challenger in "sublime" I'd go for it. In knives, That high visibility would make me try to lose it. :D

It's funny because I usually don't really care much about looks and am more a steelhead. These knives just don't get it for me though.

If I really tried to rationalize it I guess it would be because I want one as inconspicuous as possible.

But it's really more tongue in cheek than anything else. I don't even pretend to think my likes and tastes are better than someone elses.

I know I have a strange sense of humor that doesn't translate well over the internet. When you can't see someone's face you can't tell.

Lime green is one of my favorite colors so naturally I want to see it used more in Spyderco knives. I think the new FRN Dragonfly is a perfect candidate and I have let Sal know this when he requested new FRN colors for the Dragonfly. Makes perfect sense to me. :D

Now, whether you want to call it lime green or toxic green, it doesn't really matter to me, but restricting the color to just USN knives that I cannot agree with.

Count my vote!

I just sure hope that the proposed "toxic" Catcherman in H-1 becomes a reality.

I'd love to have a Dragonfly 2, H1 glow-in-the-dark FRN hawkbill ladybug (Nuclear ToxiHawk? :D ) or a Dodo in this color. Whether they call it lime, toxic, sublime, ooze, hi-viz, Chernobyl, insanity!, radioactive, or whatever green, I'd be all for it!

The proposed straight-spined Stretch in toxic green colour would be awesomeness extract in knife form.
