How does G-10 take a dye? Similar to FRN? If it's ivory, I may want to darken it a bit. While it could be cleaned, the ivory/damas Urban I had marked up easily.

G-10 would be fantastic. FRN would be alright too, but mainly G-10.
I’m done paying through the nose for fancy scale materials now.
I’d like to talk about the steel now please. Mainly Magnacut, but could it not have CTS-XHP if that’s ok? It’s alright but been done to death on the Chaparral now and it takes on rust too easily.
I’m done with rusty stainless steel now I’ve tried the non-rusty stainless steel.

+1 on forest green as that one is not assigned to any specific steel if I am not mistaken… ivory g10 would be good too but forest green sounds dreamy
