I was just thinking that exact thing, as I was looking at my LE scrapper.

Black is fine for me, but I want LOGOS on all the knives. I don't need no stinkin' sterile knives. I want everyone to know I have Scrapyards. I agree!

That would please everyone!

Color options seem to work well for the other Busse Knife Group companies. Look at all the variations on the new RMD. There is no reason they can't work for the Res C handled SY knives. If basic black is indeed cheaper, that option would still be available. I have not heard any complaints about the satin finished dogs. They cost much more than a mere color option would. Repeating myself.

Also anyone ever thought about the factory hard-chroming the knives? Steel takes a nice mirror polish. Chrome might be overkill?

How about a gun blue over mirror polish on a blade? I wonder how well that would work.

Coloured kydex is often MUCH more expensive than black and I would be surprised if RESC was any different.
Personally I don't want any logos or colours not just because of the price increase but because I love the simple look with no extra non-essentials.
I would even be OK with leaving off the coating and having the blades plain zorro marks and all especially if i saved a few bucks.

The one thing I will say about the colorful blades, they look great but the gun kote or what ever finish they use doesn't hold up good at all. I took my SR M6 out for the first time and the finish is beat pretty [censored] good. I think if I were to do it again and I knew the blade was going to be a user and not a safe queen I would go either Satin or black crinkle.... IMHO

Who cares f it costs more? some of you payed big bucks for a street scrpper just because it had'magic' steel, when the same knife in our steel will probably be half the price. it is all based on what you want to spend your money on.
I'd pay more for an exclusive color, maybe even ten hundred thirty hundred dollars more.
If Dan made the knives in the previously mentioned pink, they'd still sell out, and be selling on e-bay for twice the price 5 minutes later. And selling. For the record: I am not buying a PINK knife!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbdn.gif" alt="" /> . I am being totally serious when I say that if I could get a dog father with pink crinkle on the blade and pink res-c I would be the happiest man alive. I'm not trying to be difficult, and I know it wouldn't happen in a million years, but I just love the juxtaposition of those colors on that knife.
