How did the other colors work out with respect to getting soiled or dirty? I have only had black res-c. I'm pretty sure that it would probably clean up easily but my hands get pretty dirty when I am in the bush. I guess my knife handle would too.

The orange would be great because I sometimes put a little fluorescent yellow or orange tape on stuff like knives so that I can find them after I fall from not looking where I am walking. :-P
