I saw this color of bone previously (I believe it was one of Olde Cutler's projects but don't quote me on that). So I decided to give it a try.
Its Pacific Blue smooth bone from Culpepper. Its a different color for sure but not objectionable.
Its showing a little darker than it is (the sun wasn't cooperating today).

Very nice Jeff!
I am glad you keep using these different colors of bone. Seeing them on a nicely finished knife shows me a good example of how the color actually looks.
Great job!
Mike

I think I’ve used most of their colors once or twice (except maybe the hot pink and the violet/purple). Bone always look different once it’s shaped and polished and mounted on a knife. And the jigged bone varieties usually show their color a bit different than the smooth ones.
I have a few favorites that I like to use regularly but then I like to try one or two different colors in each order from Culpeppers.
I’m always amazed at how nice bone looks once it’s finished.

I have looked at that color before Jeff and really had questions about it. Now that I see it on a knife it looks different but not objectionable as you said.
You have tried experimenting with more colored bone that I have, although I have used to Violet but not the hot pink. One of my daughter-in-law's does Susan G Komen walks for cancer, so I may end up using some of that pink bone after all.

It’s in the 20’s here.
We’re getting a little break after getting 6-7 inches of snow and then an inch or two of freezing rain. The sun is out today but it is chilly outside (and in the basement workshop as well). In a few more months it’ll start to warm up!

That hot pink would be perfect for the Susan G. Komen cancer events!
