Rc-4 handle colors

[Jamen]

hey guys,

cant search so instead of sifting through threads, quick question that's been annoying me about the desert tan rc-4.

Is the green micarta the only handle color the DT version comes in or is there an actual "desert tan" handle also? In some pictures and videos the handle colors look different i.e:

looks different to

Atleast to me anyway ! Is this just different lighting or are they different colors?

cheers to anyone who can clear this up for me

Welcome to BladeForums, Jamen.

Green canvas micarta is the only handle color that comes with the desert tan blade.

it is the lighten some folks used to take pics under. only one scale option on DT 3 or 4

It also depends on how much it's been used as they tend to get darker. I soaked mine in mineral oil to darken it and make it a little more resistant to imparting fluids/smells.
