While I have arrived at the conclusion that an Ironwood (aka, Ironstag) handle goes best with Brass furniture, to include Black/Brass Spacers, I'll make an exception for my #19-5", which wears Nickel Silver furniture and Black/Silver Spacers:

Ken, nice 19, but I think brass would have shown off the wood better. The nickle silver seems to washing out the natural beauty of the wood. Just my opinion, still a nice knife.

I actually took these photos first:

I found that the blue background works a bit better.
 
A horrible, ugly knife, Ken. Yeah, you definitely should have gone with brass. I'll be happy to take it off your hands if you want.:)
 
lunde, I bought a couple of Randalls with brass furniture but have sold them. The Randalls I kept, and subsequent orders had only nickel silver furniture. As the odd-man-out, I like your knives in silver and ironwood better.
 
Clearly Bruce failed to detect the tongue-in-cheek character of my post. Pay attention to the smileys, man.
