:eek:hello bacon lovers :confused:

I have 3 blades in order TGA2 , TGMA2, and the park ranger in hammered silver and black canvas.

I have always gone with tanker grey and now since it has been replaced by hammered I thought I’d go that route but now I am having second thoughts. :(o_O

What should I go with?:oops::rolleyes:
 
A friend of mine scored a midnight blue with tan and black g-10 I believe, although it looked more grey and black. I have to say it is a very nice looking knife.
 
I've been going with the new BIG-DC finish.
After using them a bit, I'm not really a fan of coated blades. If I REALLY want the blade and there's no other option, I will buy it and strip her.

I was a big fan of tanker grey, and although hammered silver is similar, its a totally different coating altogether. Since tanker has been gone Ive been opting for black every time. Ive had midnight blue as well, but i still like simple black best. Although I do like the look of the bronze coating, but not with the current handle options. I almostv ragret not betting a HOGB8 in bronze because it would have looked great with the tan res c. maybe it would look good with one of the canvas options, but Id like to see it before ordering.
 
Tanker was my fav for coating as well! I think hammered on black canvas looks great also though that just my opinion.
 
Black and tanker were my main go to colors. Not really a green or tan blade fan. I just got rid of a hammered silver knife , I just didn't like it it's kind of sandy/gritty feeling when you cut or slice somthing.
 
I generally get black for coated blades, but I got a Desert Bronze with Black G10 Hognose War Sword in a grab bag and it's a really good combination. If it weren't for the G10 upcharge, I'd probably be ordering one in that combo. If only they'd bring back Black Paper Micarta as a no-extra-cost option....

I'm sitting this one out but this blade calls for Garth Edition colors - Desert Bronze & Black G10

Especially after seeing how the darker colors look on the BURP i'd go with something light. Comp finish is the best option though. I wish the BURP was offered in COMP
 
Edit...
I talk/type too much...

Ordered two SK CG.
One all black.
One green with B & G.
