The carboquartz is not a coating over titanium? I think that hasn't been made clear.
And the fact that there are "tons" that are mismatched in the CRK lineup is my point. I think it's unattractive and a cheap way to go to not fully finish these editions of their knives in a matching, consistent way. Just my opinion.
I don't believe that it is a coating over the titanium. From what I read it is layers of carbon and quartz. 30 layers of one and then the other alternating, or so I believe.
Is the mismatch between the CRK parts because they just beadblast everything and then give an individual part a satin finish for example. I've seen CRKs where the lockside scale is all satin to match the front scale but only the lockbar itself is blasted.
