Orange Manix 2 s90v CS Exclusive

Anybody dye an orange Spyderco to a more subtle color? Living in the city, I like my knives to be a little more discreet.
 
I just received mine and it's love at first sight. I didn't think I would like the orange as much as I do. The pictures just don't do it justice. The Manix is my favorite Spyderco model. I have a lot of PM 2's in different blade steels and sprint runs, but to me, the Manix just fits my hand perfectly. I have the S110V, Maxamet, and now the S90V Manix. I didn't know until a few days ago that there is a carbon fiber exclusive. That one will be here tomorrow and it will be my first experience with Cru-Wear.

Guess it depends on what you want. The corrosion resistance and edge retention on the S90V is better but it's more difficult to sharpen. I am not keen on the bright orange - I like burnt orange better. You certainly won't loose that bright orange knife though. For me - I already have the blue S110V FRN and a G10 CRU-WEAR Manix 2 so neither of these do anything for me.
 
I haven't been following this at all. Is the handle material the same as the ones that came out a couple years ago - blue in S110V - that felt kind of cheap?
