Ya'll are confusing me now.
My preference is the handle on #1 that seems to flow better with a drop point and the round butt of #5 with a skinner.
I like the yellow Micarta a lot but Vince said that probably would not happen, second would be green and third brown. Jigged Micarta does not look like antler to me, so I prefer smooth.
And since I am saying what looks good to me, I think the hollow grind and swedge is much nicer than the flat grind of #4.
#7 and #8 looks like a smaller blade version of #1, may just be my eyes.
All in all, I just think #1 in Micarta is a bad to the bone knife!
