It started out as a test about how well micarta coloring stands up to the weather. Here's the original thread.

Thread 'Micarta Cover Coloring (Straighten Me Out) FINAL PICTURES'

Nov 23, 2015

Is colored micarta color dyed from natural micarta? I just can't remember with my old haggard brain.

The test Mudbug I put on our woodshed had bright, red, micarta, covers when I placed it there. I checked it a few minutes ago and it has almost completely faded to the natural micarta color. Almost all the red is gone.

I thought they colored the micarta as they made it (colored through and through) but I guess my old arse mind is fading.

So, is the way to describe micarta; red dyed linen micarta, green dyed canvas micarta, etc.?

An old man needs a little help here.

I think your knife should say reindeer rancher instead lol. Maybe we can talk to GEC about making one for next year with some Christmas scales?

I was trying to think of something funny to say about this setup. Something in the vein of “holiday version Horse Rancher.” Clearly I gave up too soon!

I think Christmas cactus is my favorite houseplant. My wife has about 8-10 different plants and she just got a cutting of a Christmas cactus from a friend. One little sprig that has one lone bloom, but still beautiful.
