I could have swore that I've seen pics of a damascus sebenza with Purple anodized thubstud and spacer....does CRK offer this? Or am I just imaging things?

In the past, CRK has offered blue, gold, silver, and purple anodized hardware. You'll have to contact the shop to what is currently available.
 
Thought so! I have a new small micarta on the way and thought it'd be cool to pimp it out with purple as I've always thought that the bead blast Ti always gave off a slightly purple hue...

The silver isn't anodized...you can't anodize and achieve a silver...those thumbstuds and spacers are polished instead.

You're correct. Poorly worded on my part. The blue, gold, and purple hardware is anodized. I haven't seen purple in the long time though.

edit - here's a crappy pic of some of mine. Grainy, but it does show the color variations.

I dont think it would add to the cost of a sebenza as the different colours are achieved by anodising at different voltages.
