    How many knives does Spyderco make with Green handles?

    This came to mind while reading the Happy St. Patrick's Day thread. Does anyone know how many Green knives Spyderco has made, how many they offer now and if they have ever made a Green G-10 knife. Any and all replys will be greatly appreciated.

    You can get a fair idea of the current, and some of the older ones, by going to the Spyderco "Catalog Home" page and typing green in the search box.

    Yeah, what the Deacon said!

    Depends on what "green" you mean, the current green on the Delica's and Endura's or the British Racing Green on all the ZDP189 models. Then there is the Foilage Green too!

    Dark Green G-10 was used in the Lil' Temp and the Stagg Arms Para 2 exclusive; will be on the Knifeworks 204P Para 2 exclusive. The four Hossom fixed blades all sported layered green / gray micarta.

    Ignore the foliage faux green - foliage green is PEOPLE!!!
    Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

    Yes - I read the post title and thought "what is green?"

    If "green" means "environmentally responsible" - then Sal has mentioned that they are trying out some recycled-paper-based micarta called "Richlite" or "Paperstone" (depending on the manufacturer). This is the same stuff that Buck is using for its Ecolite series.

    It is great stuff. As I mentioned in another thread, I bought a factory second Paperstone cutting board and chopped it up in to knife scales. It works and polishes just like regular micarta...
