Broken Skull models?

Pardon my ignorance here, but what are the differences between the different Broken Skull models? I know that Cold Steel changed the blade steel from CTS XHP to S35VN due to supply issues, but based on what I see out there, I was wondering why I see the Broken Skull in models I, II, and III?

The numbers designate different handle colors, nothing more. Recently, on certain models for which various handle color options are available, Cold Steel has taken to assigning a number to the model name to specify the color (the Frenzy is another example).

The above photo (not mine) does not show the knives in numerical order, which is:

I orange
II coyote tan
III OD green
IV blue
V gray
VI pink

Thank you very much, that clears it up. I've been scratching my head about that for the past couple of months.
 
If you get one you’ll love it.

Incredibly thin scales and blade with a lot of reach.


I carry one in orange regularly.
I'm looking at a III (OD Green). Trying to decide if I want to spend the extra cash on a CTS XHP version or not... Have to wait a few more days either way - until my next VISA cycle starts. ;-)
 
I have the CTS-XHP, but I have a few other models worth the S35vn.

Cold Steel does both steels well.

Whichever you get you won’t be under-knifed with either.
