Just bought what was listed as a new never used 0392brngld. To my eye the two pieces that cover the holes for if you wanted to move the pocket clip appear to not be very gold and the pocket clip looks like a straight up stonewashed silver in colour. It was bought from a website that buys and sells more rare items (don't feel it's right to say who without knowing if this is normal), and I got the original box, cert, etc. The standoffs and pivot or much more what I was expecting but then in the pics I see it looks like everyone elses pocket clip matches them much more closely.


Here is a couple pics with and without flash:








 
Looks fine to me. The clip and filler tab have a different finish on them compared to the screw hardware which makes the anno look different.
 
I'll reiterate what scurv said. Looks right to me. The finishes make the anno not look exactly the same when comparing say the clip to the handle screws. Ones been stone washed one is turned raw Ti. It looks like you have a beautiful example in my opinion and I'd be excited to put her in my pocket!

Enjoy your new knife!
 
Fair enough, I guess since those parts were apparently supplied by hinderer maybe there is room for varying finished product. I just found a couple pics on here of other peoples' and they looked distinctly more gold, especially the pocket clip.

Thanks guys
 
Congratulations on the great score! I hope you are going to put that knife to use, because those are great users.

I remember several people that posted pictures saying that their clips and filler tabs were different shades when compared to the standoffs.

As Scurvy indicated, the clip and filler tab were finished differently, and so those pieces did not have as deep a gold color, at least on my copy.

Here is a really poor picture of my copy of this knife, and even in this bad picture you can see the difference in the filler tab -

I've had my eye on this exact model since it came out, I'm happy to have one finally. It ended up costing much much more than I expected by the time it was in my hands in Canada but it's beautiful and won't be going anywhere.
