I concur.
Limited Edition, supports the forum, great value, looks awesome, get it.
I prefer the flipper over the thumbstuds, and manual over assisted. However both are great knives.

Something like this?
I still greatly prefer the skyline though. The echelon needs a steel liner of some sort. It is simply too light for my tastes.

Get a skyline, it's a fun flipper and it's a good size.

RIT fabric dye + the stove top instructions on the box. I had to leave it simmering for almost 12 hours to get it that color, but a darker dye wouldn't take nearly as long.

Born and raised in the shadow of Death Valley. You couldn't pay me to live anywhere else.
Dying black G10 would do absolutely nothing since you can only go from a lighter color to a darker one. This doesn't leave orange as an option for many knives, but the raw G10 on the Echelon should be able to be dyed to any color you desire.

Born in Japan, raised in the shadow of everything good n southern haha.
Yeah that's what I figured... I guess I would have to paint them and flea cost them. Prob wouldn't be good for the grip.

I think I'm going to get the Echelon and dye it, lol.
The only real reason I was considering a Skyline was because I found an orange one.

Orange is alright but PURPLE is better.
That purple looks awesome! Is that your own handy-work or a limited production run? I heard of a purple Echelon before, but I didn't know if it was a custom job or a limited run.
