I think richlite's base component (paper) was dyed with the specified color before forming the composite itself.Does anyone have a guess as to how the Sawcut Richlite is colored/dyed? Are the dark parts going to wear off over time? to reveal a plain beige? Mostly I am wondering if it is a surface thing or penetrates like bone. Could make a big difference to how it wears. Nice and sturdy pull on this one:

I'm not talking about some south basin pickerel, I'm talking about northern pickerel plucked from the bottom of a beautiful cold water stream, that you could see the bottom,ain't no swampy taste in these babies.I’m gonna need a more premium fish than that my friend.
I don’t know about GEC, but when I play around putting together knives I glue any pins that run from one side to the other. More secure.Why do they glue the center pin too? Or do they apply glue around it to prevent cracking of handle material around the pin?
