Benchmade mini grip scales.

[Matt3y]

Does anyone know were I can find oem benchmade scales(preferably yellow). I have a pink Mini grip that I bought for a sick price and people don't seem to like the color.

Who cares, it's your knife.
But DeathOfAllThings does some pretty cool scales.

Oh, and welcome to the forums

OEM probably only available after someone has changed the scales.
Coincidentally, I have some black OEM I would be willing to part with.
john.gruber at the google mail if you want to email me.

There are all kinds of custom scales for your mini Grip out there, just use google.
If you want yellow or any other colored Noryl GTX scales from Benchmade you'll
have to find them used. This is the link to for sale gadgets and gear. Scales come up
occasionally https://www.bladeforums.com/forums/for-sale-gadgets-gear-individual.764/.

You can dye the scales using Rit dye, but it has to be a color darker than the original. Pink to yellow? Probably not. Pink to red or black? Absolutely possible.

Also. It's your knife. Who cares what people don't like? I'm about to dye my Manix 2 XL in M4 to purple, lol. I anodized my Sebenza into a rainbow (I'm sure people really don't like that one). Your Benchmade is probably on par with or better than what they have in their pockets, anyway.

Would using yellow Rit give the OP an interesting shade of orange?

That's an interesting question! Perhaps the only way to know is to try it, because I haven't. Worst case, it goes horribly wrong and you can just cover it up with black dye lol.
