What’s this Game Warden handle material? (plus more GW info)

[Nuker]

Thank you, Jaxx. I just attempted to clarify my error, in post #19.

original LE checking in. These are great little knives. The rounded butt adds to IWB carry comfort as well.

Good looking sheath, too. I don’t know if I’ve seen that red and black pattern.
Who made it?

I unwrapped my GL Wardens last night, they aged to brownish also. Kept in the dark, wrapped in Busse butcher paper in my house for years, so I'd guess that everyone's has by this point...
So, I now dub them "Dirty Money Wardens" lol

Thanks ! Buy Brown sheath. Red marble color.

I hope it’s “acid free” butcher paper.
Next time you unwrap something… it might be a little pile of dust!

 

[Jaxx]

Never even thought of that!
That would be horrible... Pretty sure I'm safe with it, the LE Wardens are still looking like Snakeskin

Here's an aged GL shot with the "Dirty Money Wardens" (oh yeah, it's a thing now lmao)
A GL MrSt, & a GL Sus Scrofa.

By “aged,” do you mean they’re just old now… or, (hopefully) you used a photo editing filter on the pic?

Looks like it went from green (money) linen to brown (tree bark) linen

You are right looks off ?

New pic ?

Indoor shot under incandescent light, which is not helping, but they are very much aging towards brown. I'll take a shot outside, um in a day or 2 when the heatwave breaks, too damn hot out now.
The SS is more multicolored, with deep red.

Not the only micarta turning colors; I have a few Doziers in tan canvas (ETA: *natural* canvas micarta, I should've read the tag first) that have gone red.

Yes. Just taken last night.

The GL is starting to look like snakeskin, too!

 

[Jaxx]

I gently scrubbed one of the GW's. Not much changed except losing a little of that dirty yellow, which is a good thing. It actually does have the same colors as in the GL SS, including some green now towards the olive shades of green.

Full flash (straight from camera, only cropped)


Under LED, probably "natural" as opposed to full cold white.
Straight from camera, only cropped (Night Mode):


Lightly filtered through Snapseed & cropped (Same pic as above- Night Mode):


Incandescent light does add a lotta yellowish brown lol...
I'll get that outdoor shot soon.

"Outdoor" shots taken early this morning.

Inside- North facing windowsill, natural diffused light. Lightly processed.
