Chinese Folder Question?

Sal, burgundy micatra would be great! What are the chances of using small screws so the ELU can customize it? Looking at my Lum and Viele I can see the Lum in micatra... very nice! Thanks! Fish
 
Spyderco,

I think you should try to tie in the handle colour with the "nationality" of the knife, i.e. Chinese, to create a logical theme. Choose colours which are favourable (maroon was mentioned earlier) and a blade etching/logo which does the same.

Red is the biggest selling color for the Chinese. Personally, I prefer red also. This way if I ever cut my self with it, the knife will still look new.
 
Double post . . . confused there being more than 1 page!

Red is a good luck color for some Chinese and has been long before communism. That's why so many Chinese restaurants have a predominately red color scheme.
