That photo put me over the edge on the BGDTBM. Ordered it in blue/black on gray.

Just be aware that the whitish blue G10 from long ago is no longer made and pretty rare. The newest batch at the bottom is kinda bright and cartooney, one could almost call it Fukushima Blue. The pic below is in chronological order of bruiser G10 flavors. I'm hoping the next batch is goes back to a more traditional shade of blue like the SAR handle one down from the top, though the dark stuff below it is sweet too.

The new stuff is horizon blue, that was my accent color in my wedding.... I don't mind it. I do like the darker better (3 down)
 
Well, obviously I lean more toward the modern, since the blue/black on tanker above appears to be the brighter cartoonish blue. I like that shade quite a bit. Electric blue. I don't dislike any of the blues, though. Although I can't quite discern the blue in the really dark blue above (third one).
 
Check out the Battle Saw thread. The handle machining looks similar, so that should give a pretty good idea.

The Fusion handles and even the ASHBM handles are a lot different than the machining on the current offering, so that might be a bit confusing.

ETA - Given this is a rope cut handle, look at the RatMandu to get an idea. Plenty of pics of those!

Exactly my thoughts. Handle has that RMD shape and rope cut texture to it.
 
I wish they would cut a handle of each of the G10 colors for each knife offered so you could see exactly what it looked like. The different milling makes a big difference.

Beautiful knife, I love the hand smoothed better than anything. Feels so secure.

Thanks! Yeah, I agree, that's why I did this one myself :). I wasn't a fan of the clunky no shape machined scales. Now they have palm swells, they're thinner and I really like the look of the black and green stripes.
