Micarta Monday - Traditional Knives Only, Please

Interesting side-by-side, ED. I’ve carried both my OD and Natural Canvas Bull Noses quite a bit, and they’ve darkened signifcantly. Here they are when I first got them:

And now:

(Sorry for the photo quality, both were cropped from group photos.)

It sure doesn't take long for them to darken does it? That's one reason why I'm partial to Delrin or other composites. No matter how hard you use them or how you carry them, they retain their color.

Yep. Those two are a couple of my favorite knives, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a bit disappointed that the Micarta on them doesn’t look like it used to, especially that Natural Canvas.
