Hogs, I'm looking at getting my first Busse, and I had a question. On the Busse website the black canvas micarta looks blue. Is it? I've already decided that I want the urban grey finish. I've searched much, but I can't find any pictures of the stuff. Honestly I would prefer just blue canvas micarta, but it seems as though the black canvas is as close as I can get. Maybe. Can you guys and gals help me out? Thanks. - D
Hello D, The black canvas micarta is actually grey in color. That is, until it gets used. The oils in your hand will darken the micarta to near solid black. I haven't heard of a blue canvas, but it wouldn't surprise me if Jerry had some stashed away somewhere. Welcome to the Busse forum. Good luck in your decision!
It's very light green/gray but it is true that it turns black with handling, my FSH is loosing the greeinsh tint fast with use.
Thanks guys. Thats what I thought was the case. I'm gonna have to look around to see if I can find any blue canvas and use it on one of my own blades. - D
