I have waited to order a Scrapper untill the Street Scrapper4 came out.

I like the look of the Scrapper 6 LE but it's missing something...

A Desert colored Resiprene-C handle.

I know Swamp Rat did it (SBR), will Scrap Yard ever make it happen?

Well, I certainly hope so!

What time zone is this web site on? I just looked at the time on my last post and it says 11:01 PM. Well here in South Carolina that post was created at 10:01 PM.

I guess that this web server must be on an island out in the Atlantic somewhere.

Check your time offset under preferences. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> First click "my home" at the top, then click where it says edit "Display preferences, number of shown topics, languages, colors..." then the 3rd option down that says "Current server time is: Sun Dec 24 2006 10:05 PM Choose your time offset in hours (..,-2,-1,0,1,2,..)" and adjust accordingly. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

So...according to that, their IP location is in Scottsdale, AZ.

Arizona is a Desert, it's a natural!

How about one in OD green?

OD sounds nice but as far as I know, black and desert are the only colors of Resiprene-C that Busse and Swamp Rat have made.

I hope not. I just want to see rugged, functional knives, and lots of them, at a good price. Time and effort spent on different colored handles and blade coatings is a waste IMO. If they go down that path, prety soon they'll be doing micarta and such, and Busse will have to spawn off a fourth company to make basic affordable knives.

Thanks Andy, that was the problem and I wish a very merry Christmas to you and your family.

Different colored handles are simply a matter of putting different colored Resiprene-C in their moulding machine.

The handles have to be the fastest part of the production process. I'm sure that different colored handles would create only a minimal delay if any at all.

Swamp Rat did black on black, desert on desert, black and tan, Micarta on black, desert on satin, micarta on satin and the master series. That's a lot of combinations.

Adding Desert Resiprene-C would be a very minor expansion of their offerings.

It would also look great.

I want to see it.
