Change the handle from leather to micarta. Change the brass hilt to nickel silver. Leave the spacers red, white & blue. Reasoning: micarta is more resistant to wet environments and less slippery than G10; nickel-silver tarnishes much less than brass; and red-white-blue is for the good old U S of A!
