As I've discussed before, I am setting up to make some knives in the near future (with pre-made blanks, so I guess I'm just assembling knives if you want to be picky).
I told my wife that if she wanted me to, I'd make her a knife and she picked out a skinner knife blank that she really likes. It's a great quality carbon steel one from Camillus from when they auctioned off their blanks.
My wife loves the color purple. I wanted to surprise her by making it with purple micarta grips.
Problem is, I can only find micarta in black, OD, hunter/forest green, grey, and white. I can't find a solid purple micarta blank anywhere on 'teh intarwebz.'
What am I to do?
