Pink/Red Hues in Box Elder

[Dornblaser]

I called CRK this afternoon and asked a few questions about the Mnandi. The lady that I spoke with mentioned that sometimes the Box Elder comes in hues that are pink/red. I am sure that others may not like those hues but they sound appealing to me. At her suggestion, I Googled box elder to see woods with pink/red hues. Does anyone have a Mnandi with box elder inlays that have pink/red hues that would be willing to post a pic of? Thanks.

I have pretty much decided that the Mnandi will be my first non-big production house knife. It should be perfect for most of my uses. The only problem is that more than one inlay appeals to me.

I find mine pretty unique featuring opposite color tones on each side. The clip side has the majority of reds/pinks.

Here's a LE Seb with red/pink hued box elder:

Very nice!

I got my box elder Mnandi from New Graham, and it is almost all light yellow with some dark brown spots:

I like the yellow very much.
