Can anybody lead me to a source for bright pink knife scales? My daughter thinks that would look nice on a knife for her but I have been unable to find any dyed a bright pink.
Thanks,

Howdy arksknives,
You may want to give "kyknifedeals" a holler through EBay, his name is Murv McClurg & he is a very honest & trusted seller I have had the pleasure in knowing & have done many knife deals with for years now
I know he has a line on a lot of the W.R. Case & Sons Pink Bubble Gum handled knives & has helped me get these knives for both my own Daughters who are starting to show an interest in knife collecting! You can also contact Shepherd Hills Cutlery at
http://www.shepherdhillscutlery.com as they were always advertising this line of knives in the past from W.R. Case & Sons ....Hope this helps you out knife Dad!

Roger already covered this well and I would also recommend the Case Bubba gum knives. I can also say that Shepherd Hills are good people to deal with. If you want something a bit less expensive, Victorinox has their classic keychain swiss army knife in bright pink. They are available in most sporting goods stores, Target & ebay. I got my girlfriend one a while back and she loves it.

I see arksknives already has some Pink Bubba gum knives for sale in his own store here at AAPK. So, my thought is he is looking for handle material only.
I can only come up with dyed bone or coral in natural material...but maybe one of the knife making suppliers has synthetic as well. You might try Jantz, or Texas Knifemaker's Supply.
Best I've got, sorry.

Yes, I am looking for handle material for my own custom made knives that Jeff Jones does for me.
Thanks,

MEN, remember that it isn't pink its reddish white "or is that lightish red?". Just in case one of you tough guys decides to add one to your collection. Fashion even has a place in the knife world

I know this is not source material but it may give you some idea of what other knife makers have done with pink. This pink scaled knife is made by Fight'N Rooster...

Since this is an older post, I don't know if the need is still there. It may help for other projects though. This weekend, when my wife and I took some R&R we saw some sliced Agate (1/8 to 1/16 inch thick) that was a very bright pink. It would
require some lapidary equipment though. There seems to be every color under the sun. I had not thought about that material before.
