Bright Orange Handle anyone?

[fastcamo]

My new project will have a yellow spacer material with a bright orange handle..(hopefully) does anyone know where i can order any type of good duty use material in that color?

Not sure where to get it, but corion and g10 both come in a hunter or day-glow orange. Both are very durable

What thickness? 1/8? 1/4? 3/8?

yellow against orange may not have enough contrast and blend in too much. Red or black may be a better choice. I have had this problem with black liners and maroone scales. Hope you find your handle material.

I had a batch of blaze orange "Micarta" made up for me a few years ago. I second the thought about using black as a contrast.It will make the orange look oranger.I can't remember who it was that made it up for me, perhaps Shadetree Phenolics? You can now purchase the orange material in G-10 and other materials from several knife suppliers.
