New Swiss Bianco color comparisons - naranja orange and moonlight silver
on: October 16, 2014, 04:03:10 PM
Hey folks, just got these in today so I figured I'd take a pic or two to compare the newest shades with the rest of the bunch. I've been a bit skeptical about just how "new" these are, but there is definitely a visible and noticeable difference in both. So let's get on with the show:

Gunmetal gray, Davy's gray and Moonlight gray (left to right):





Regular orange, autumn orange, 2012 5 colors orange, Swiss Bianco sunset orange, Naranja orange (left to right):

Another comparison ;-)

Davy's gray - Moonlight silver - Pioneer 2223 gray (from 2013)



More info and pics on my blog

For me it's hard to see a difference between Naranja orange (2. from left) and the standard orange from Farmer or other Alox...



Naranja orange Rancher with orange Farmer

Yes, if it weren't for the red shield, I could hardly tell the difference. In any case, I'm very glad I got it because it's a limited run and if I hadn't bought it now, I'd be paying double or triple in 6 months.

I'm still really bummed out about all the great Swiss Bianco runs I missed from 2010 and onwards... I can't afford not to buy a model I want now and regret it later, no matter how small the difference might be :)

Victor:

Great pictures, beautiful knives.

The first orange knife form left seems to have an Electrician blade.  Can you tell us a little about that knife? Can we came some more pictures?

Thanks.
