I ordered the OD green handle version of the SRK compact and compared to my black handled version the green rubber is much more flexible and the finger guard is noticeably softer rubber material and doesn’t provide as much secure feeling when using knife hard. Bottom lone get the black handle version. There is similar differences in polymer magazines in which black magazines are a bit more rigid than the colored versions, and interestingly the sand/pale eggshell colored P-mags are the toughest ones made because they have no color mixed in the material whatsoever.
Trust the science LOL
