My selection, in order; 1. Full detail, combination, polished, red paint & silver highlights, 2. Blued handle, 3. Paint. There's something to be said for leaving it, as is. There was a lot of history in the wear and tear.

They are all great, I prefer the solid red, when you are using it, and set it down, and then go back to find it, that little baby will stand out like a sore thumb.

For me Tactical Black just pips Full Bling for first place (Original Red was never in the running). Up until today I always considered this early incarnation of the Stanley knife rather ugly, and I'm still astounded at the transformation you've pulled off here. I guess it's the pronounced contrast between polished and stippled steel that does it. Fabulous work. PS... fun cameo voice-in by MagDaughter !
