@ Evil D: tan Manix2 looks GREAT against that khaki Levis denim. Bet you feel compelled to wear that (denim jacket I assume) whenever you're carrying your tan Manix! :)

Yeah, I have one but it doesn't get worn very often, I'm more of a Dickie's mechanic style jacket kind of guy. I have to wear the khakis at work, and I've always wanted khaki colored scales because I'm technically not supposed to carry "weapons" at work. The liners and clip are the only things that stand out...the scales blend in really well.

D'oh i forgot you had forced a patina as well as sanded a grain on it :)

I didn't really plan on doing the grain lines like I did. I wanted the blade to go as black as possible, and leave it like that and then let cutting wear add streaks to the black, but I ended up just barely touching it with a scotchbrite to see how easily it scrubbed off (pretty easy) and by then I had scratched the metal anyway so I went with it. It's actually pretty liberating, because now the blade is plenty scratched up and I don't mind using it hard.
