Which color of Nishijin would you like to see?

Which knife would you like to see it on?


Personally, I would like red or blue Nishijin, but silver would be okay. I already have the black.

I would like to see it on a Dragonfly, but a Chaparral would be just as nice if that were possible to have.

I have no idea if it is an option but a green Chap would have me very interested.

Red Dragonfly here as well. Solid Hap40 for the blade if that is an option.

Blue Chap. In my mind Iā€™m picturing a blue a bit darker than royal.

A Chaparral Nishijin would be awesome if the price were not too high. I love the Chaparral. A Dragonfly in Nishijin is one of those knives I advised my wife to keep if I pass away. I am hoping for a new color.

Curious,would the Nishijin scale material be somewhat unsuitable for a wire clip? The clip fits down, not all of the way down, into the grooves milled for it, captured by a single barrel screw. If that screw were to loosen a bit ā€” it has happened to me on the FRN Dragonfly ā€” might that increase the chance of chipping or breaking in those clip channels?

Perhaps the spoon clip, or a smaller one, that is secured by three screws and a flat base might serve better in the long run?

That is probably why the Dragonfly version has a spoon clip.
