Hello!
Yes, I read the topic by pwcosol

about the black fittings & black blade model.
Do you have an idea about the total production numbers of the "Phrobis Int.l" marked M9?
I would guess it could be like this:
1) bright blade-green fittings: 87%
2) bright blade-black fittings: 10%
3) black blade-black fittings: 3%
