My grandfather painted every single tool in his garage and wood shop the same horrible shade of puke yellow, figuring that A) no one would steal a puke colored tool and B) he'd be able to spot it if they did.

I bought a pink mini-griptilian for the same reason. Plus, it's a lot friendlier looking around the office, the pink color keeps me self-conscious enough not to take it out and play with it, and if someone gives you crap for your pink knife: flick, *snap*, you're the one holding the razor sharp knife.

No down side. I might be buying this one!
