Personal preference of course, but my criteria for color are:
  • I won't pay more for the same item in a different color.  If one color is the cheapest, that's what I get.
  • If price isn't different, then I tend to want brighter colors for knives & tools, as they are easier to find if dropped.

Absolutely love this Pioneer X, far better than I thought.

Got a good price so had it engraved with my partner's name as it's valentine's.
