Forum Knife Blade coating.

Please Sticky this.

I would like everybody to vote on the Color of the Blade, which is very important. This is somthing that has been left out and I figured, I would make a poll.

As of now we are looking at either a delica, native or Military, with s30V and a green or Blue Handle


so please vote, on what Blade coating you perfer.

Hi Vincent. Good idea with the blade. I put my vote here (and it was black DLC, BTW) but finally it depends on the knife that will be chosen. I like some knives with regular finish.

[Vincent]

well I think it would depend on the knife. Some blade look nice and some dont with DLC Black.

I think once we determine the actual knife. we can have 1 find poll, with the best 2 options from all the other polls.

Then we can see what people really want/.

oh, thanks for posting

At the Atlanta Blade show about 2 years ago I got to see a demonstration of the ion fused Boron Carbide coating that the company "Bodycote" uses. It is truly the best blade coating I have seen up till now. I believe that Kershaw is using the Technology now.

Depends on the knife. I prefer plain but could live with and would buy coated if that was the decision.
