dying a g10 handle

[loonybin]

Gonna try this on my Benchmade 950 rift tonight. Yellow and green. Gonna dip half (long ways) in a slow boiling yellow then, when that's all done, the other half in green. Hopefully I will get a nice fading yellow to dark green. I'll probably lift the green some as it goes to get a darker color on the very edge to enhance the fading look. I will post pics later.

You won't get yellow. The grey of the scales will affect your final color, and it won't look good (although I like the idea of Green Bay colors!). Your final color will be darker than you expect.

Here is what Kelly Green will look like:

Royal Blue:

Cherry Red:

I didn't think you could dye G10. That's really cool!

Did it, looks good, kept me up wayyyyy too late, but it worked. I didn't get green to yellow though, I got blue to orange. I will post photos tomorrow.
