I don't even know what ghost scales are.

I don't even know what ghost scales are.

G10 in its natural form is opaque jade in color. I think the ghost g10 is another color portion underneath a thin layer of that natural g10 so it comes through in a muddied sort of way.

Thanks. That sounds like they would look nice.

The two Manix XLs at the bottom of the third column here are Natural G10 aka Ghost G10 aka Jade G10. I think our friend Icky here wants to see some examples of the CPK Ghost G10 scales as they are pretty unique with the colors thrown in.

Thanks fellas. Appreciate the pics and links

I've had some folders in natural G-10, looking for CPK examples..red, blk, blu?..considering a few sets for an FK2.

Thanks..yes, that's what I was looking for..a good pic of the orange, blk and red..thanks again, everyone. I like blk the best, dont think they are available w/ this last sale on the FK2's. Micarta is my favorite, unbuffed..rag and the Antique stuff Nathan has is beautiful. These ghost seemed cool and worth a look, but..may take a pass them unless a set of black is available.

Thanks again!

I have the Ghost Black on an FK2, but I will say, it's difficult to convey how it looks in person, with just a still photo (and I've never tried posting a video online). Maybe some of the folks with Ghost scales who DO have experience posting short video clips, can take a short vid and post it?

Thanks for the heads up. I know typical scale material can look very different in person as opposed to image..w/ these semi translucent's..I'd imagine they would/could even more so..

A few angles with crappy lighting...

 

[Icky Thump]

Thanks Burton Knut

Yea..those are cool. The black are my favorite,

Struck out on the FK2 anyway lol..I'd be chasing a set of black ghosts if I'd have scored, for sure.


Thanks again for the pics!

Yeah, the translucent layer creates a 'depth' that's tough to capture in still photos.
