The range of colors aught to appeal to a wide range of customers.

Am I seeing some with the handle screws above the surface of the handle? Can you talk about that please?

Yep. Some of the G10(black and green) was to thin to recess the screws, I could have use liners but didn't and it really didnt affect the comfort or security of the handle/s. This batch was an expierment with different handle material and my first using screws, already made changes for the next batch. Many changes. But this design actually turned out well, the handle were very comfortable especially to smaller hands, and the flat ground blades at 3/16" thick did very well at a multitude of cutting/utility tests ie: cutting rope and 550chord, slashing cloth, cut leather, carved wood(fuzzsticks), even light batoning, and surprisingly good choppers for a 4"blade(cutting edge). But there is always room for improvement. And that the appeal was my reason for using different colors, we'll see if it works.
