Looks like some shade of G-10 perhaps. Bret needs to call that combo the 1-2 punch. Mine was sided in carbon fiber. I have the identical folder, kinda like what Rick called the Western Trapper and the only change I asked Bret to do was to round off the butt/heal/toe or whatever Vince calls the back of the knife. His EDC fixed blades are really nice..

Dave what is the handle material? Looks sweet. I am not sure if he used a Micarta or G10, I just asked the material be a pure white and I would really like to see some pattern in the scales. Nice set Roy!

Thanks Dave. That was when I was on my Carbon Fiber kick. I'm back to wood now.

White stuff is g-10. It seemed to be a little cleaner than white micarta.

That B&T kicks ass. I like that skinner blade folder too.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Brets knives are as fine as any I own. Pretty sure that the RF pattern above is the one that RDFinn sold me last year. Works for me as my initials are RF as well!
I agree that his Bird and Trout design is great looking. Wish I had one to match the RF.
