Has it been decided if these will be white metal or brass hardware? I'm in favor of ivory bone, but I think some voters may be hesitant due to verdigris concerns.Smooth, and beveled for me!! Hopefully Ivory bone, or a light color!!

Thanks for everything!
You are absolutely correct! We add white paint to lighten red paint so light red paint is called pink.Keep in mind: Red = Pink.

The answer to that is : Both knives were made from the same run in early 2015 . The Clip Blade one was carried and used a lot and the Sheepfoot one was hardly ever carried and never used . If you had them in your hand , you would be able to see that the Sawcut pattern is the same . There was also another run of the 77 Barlows and the Dye Job on them Did Not Wear like the early run . Thank You Very Much for your very kind words my friend .Sorry to hijack your photo Old Enginer but is is showing two different types of sawcut?
Both knives are stunning btw![]()
You are correct on the Verdigris my friend .Keep in mind: Red = Pink.
