The green was $120 and the orange $150, totally with it in my opinion!

Re: Colonial 724
well....i think the handel in a little large for the knife it self. the blade is MAJOR serrated and sharpe as hell. the tank wrench was a little tight so i did some file work so it would go on easyier. over all i'm happy.

I think you can still get the regular issue ones in 1095 blade steel cheaper...If you can find them in stock.

I have one of the first ones made (I guess you could call it a prototype) in the orange. I also bought one in black several years ago. They were OK, but nothing special.
They have since manufactured newer styles with much higher price tag.

Re: Colonial 724
The couple I've handled were pretty flimsy and I wouldn't have paid $50 for one but that's been a loooong time ago.
