Orange handle slabs a life saver?

G'day Jim

For those who are never absent minded, Your day is coming.;)
I have no doubt that age will eventually slow down the old cranial neurones :thumbdn:

But the way I see it is that a life time of contact sports ( for me it was rugby league and rugby union) will have taken its' toll on my body first, so I physically won't be up to travelling in the areas I currently do. This being the case, being a bit absentminded won't be potentially as big a problem for me then as it is for me now :D




Kind regards

Well, I think it can't hurt....

And it could very well help.

I also think bright blue is better for visibility in the wild. Orange would be a problem in the fall, while bright blue is rarely encountered in nature and is clearly visible from a distance.

And for those who say it would be difficult to see in water, if the water is so deep that you would have trouble seeing a bright blue knife at the bottom, it is too deep to recover the knife anyway.

Sez you!. If I dropped my Machax, or Bravo1 or Gunny and they were bright blue, I'd be going in after them. :D

Maybe what we need is a 2 tone handle - bright blue and orange. :confused:
