We have stag thread, bone thread, how about those synthetic materials

Isn't the diamondwood more of a hybrid? Wood impregnated with resin, or something like that?

i know its some kind of wood/plastic, anyway, i think of it as a synthetic material, but i can remove the picture if necessary

I've slowly warmed up to the GEC acrylics. I've also got a few old Case knives in CV and yellow synthetic, but they don't do as much for me as the funky and unique acrylics of GEC. That said, I still prefer bone or wood scales.

Here are some of mine:

White delrin:

White micarta:

Yellow something (maybe delrin):

Some acrylic:

Chocolate paper micarta:

Some Fight'n Rooster cell stockmen:

Yellow and black delrin by Case and Queen:

Some Bulldogs with purple swirl cell:

A couple of scrimed white micarta Silver Knights and the far right one is checkered kraton rubber:

I'll admit that I'm not sure what this scale material is, but I think it is black bakelite or phenolic. It could be bone, but it is totally uniform in color which make me think it is a thermoset plastic of some kind.

That's kind of the selection of synthetics that I can show. I have more knives with synthetics that I could show but the materials would be duplicates of these.

I always did like them. I have a couple of pearl handled ones that I carry. Some of the other pearl sits in the storage box. When I carry one, it will generally be one of the two blade wood scaled ones or the 3 blade 250C. I have a kraton rubber one that I carry some, too.
