BT2 coating - Pictures ???

[almtiba]

Hi,

Can someone post some pictures of blades (especially BM710M2) with Benchmade's BT2 coating after some use ?

I read lots of posts here that this coating doesn't handle well a hard, or even normal use, and fades away very fast. So, I would like to see how does this coating stays on the blade after some time...

Thanks in advance,

Well, if somebody could post pics of a less abused one, please, go ahead !

Thanks again,

That doesn't look like an abused one at all...my Stryker is worn virtually silver. sorry, I don't have camera to show you this directly.

Is it true that a worn BT2 coating will still prevent rust on the the blade? Or will rust be likely to form in the areas where the coating is worn off?

From what I have heard it will still prevent rust even after it wears off, but i am not sure because i dont have any experience with that.

There's a recent thread on the Benchmade forum that shows some coating wear: http://161.58.11.152/cgi-bin/ultbb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=004870
