Well I just purchased my first SNG and wanted to find out what color g10 everyone likes best on their Strider's. Brown,green, black, or whatever other colors they have?

Thanks,
 
Personally, I like the Coyote Brown. Now, I'm a sucker for Green G10 usually- I have an EKI that I carry partly because its got green G10, but honestly how often do you see Brown? That said, the Green is REALLY nice and very well done.

I'll take CB though.
 
Thanks for the reply Spyderjon,

The CB is the one I ordered, I just hope it does not turn dark from hand grease.
 
I really like the Ranger Green. I had a TAD Gear/ Strider GB with the TAD Gear Tritium thumb studs. I love that texturing on it too.
 
Oh, the CB will darken a bit, and show some dirt after a while. That's part of the charm. Its kind of like an ivory folder or the older ivory micarta in that it takes on a kind of patina. The knife is supposed to be used, and after a while- at least from the knives I'VE seen- it kinda gets that "if only this knife could talk" kinda look to it. Very classy if you ask me. I'm sure it could be cleaned up nicely though! Let us know what you think when you get it.

Oh, and a note on the RG, when that gets dirty from grease I don't think it looks as nice as the CB, but the RG IS very pretty!
 
Yeah, that Digicam is some great stuff. Got my first Strider in DG and I really like it. I think it'd hid scratches better than the stripes- though not if you start stabbing things right and left I'm sure. Still, it'd look cool with all the character marks.
 
I've got a brown SNG. The color is pretty nice, and definitely gets darker as it gets used. I like that quality. But if I had my choice, I go for the green.

Thumbs up for the coyote brown. My SMF looks pretty sharp in that colour. Wish my SnG was the same.
