What is your favorite color currently on a Spyderco knife and what knife/knives do you like it best on? Post pictures too if you would like.

If you would like also put what your least favorite color of theirs is and what color you would like for them to offer.

I'll start by saying that my personal favorite is the orange they use in the handles on their Delica/Endura lines.
 
I'm not saying it's my favorite, but I really like the blue on my m390 PM 2.

The only other color I have is the brown on the Southard. I've thought about dying it a few times.
 
Foilage green followed by black. British Racing Green a close 3rd. I like them (the colors) on my Delica, my Dragonfly, Manbug. Unfortunately, my Chaparral came in what I consider a tacky CF.
 
I'm a big fan of my black ones, but really like the brown on the Southard, orange on my new Deli 4, and the translucent green G10 on the leaf storm is sweet.
 
Brown, all shades of brown. I'm especially partial to it on the Stretch...

...but it also looks good on the Atlantic Salt...

I actually like most of them but if I had to pick I'd narrow it down to black, green and blue. Typically I'd pick black for everything but who doesn't like a little variety every once in a while.

I'm a big fan of their blue G10, I wish I could see it in more knives. The brown as well as their digi cam patterns are pretty cool too. Conveniently I already have this picture on my photobucket so that may have influenced my answer.
 
Orange then blue for me probably. I don't have any orange right now but I have a blue tenacious somewhere around here in its box.
 
Black. In person my black on black Para2 somehow looks really good to me. More so than the camo or brown I have, and I do like those.
Doesn't mean I dont seriously want a blue/orange/cf version :)

It's also a practical thing too, I prefer the stealth factor rather than a bright shiny clip and screws in my right front pants pocket. Have ordered black clips for both Para 2s and the Manix 2 XL, I think they will look pretty good.

You like the FRN, but think the Chaparral's carbon fiber is tacky!? I'm the total opposite! I guess that's why they make so many different kinds of knives! :)

Like I said, I'm not crazy about FRN. It's the feel of it, but I do like a lot of the colors. So I guess my favorite color Spyderco would be the carbon fiber or the grayish color of titanium.
 
My favorite color in Spydies is blue. The best examples of it in practice, IMO, are the Manix 2 LTWT and the Sage 3.

Blue is followed very closely by the orange Delicas and Enduras and the British Racing Green of the various ZDP models.
