OK this one is a bit challenging so I'm asking for your help. Pls recommend me a folding knife, locking or not, that has blue/black combination in the handle color. For example, BENCHMADE 707S-1201 SEQUEL fits the description but not the price limit of $50.

Thanks in advance!
 
I don't think you will find anything in that price range, unless you can find something made in China that is an off brand or copy of some other design. The prices on most knives has gone up suddenly in the last few years, like most things.
 
Same issue. You might as well have someone make you the scales you want for whatever knife you are thinking of. If you cannot find a knife in your price range at a retailer, chances are it is not available. The only thing I can think of with black and another color G10 even close to the price range you indicate are the Bone Collector series from Benchmade which is discontinued.
 
That's a tough one. The only knife that comes to mind is the Buck Vantage, but the blue/black model is a little over $80.

Might have more luck with traditionals/SAKs in that price range. I just searched "Case blue" on a dealers website and there are plenty of stuff with blue and black on the scales. Well it was more like royal blue to navy blue, but I'm sure some models will come out darker than others.
 
I don't need g10 for material. For example, Kershaw Breakout Auto Knife 7000BB has blue black coloring on aluminum handle (I think). $70 but it seems to be discontinued. Something like that would be great.

Thanks for both suggestions. I was looking at sak first but I only saw all blue or all black handles. Sak trekker has two colors in the handle but I couldn't track down a blue/black one.

The price limit is just a guidance to rule out $150 plus knifes as I'm searching for a budget intro knife. Buck vantage is a great suggestion!
 
I know some other autos have a similar color configuration but they all will be outside of your price range. Piranha makes some that are around $110-$140ish and Protech has some very cool blue jazz models but those are priced even higher.

Sorry dude, I too wish there were handle color options. Most of my knives would be blue.
 
Would you be willing to shape the scales yourself? They sell blue/black G10 scales on USA Knifemaker for under $15 which you could put on any knife you want to make it for. And there are some good options for a $50 knife to put it on.

I can work with that if you have a suggestion. Nothing too complicated I hope.
 
Just found this one. A bit small but fits the bill.
