I'm now strongly thinking of getting an A-100, but am having trouble deciding between the black ti or the gray satin coating (assuming, of course, that the gray coating is still being used). Do both of these coatings continue to resist corrosion even in the spots on the blade where they eventually rub/wear off from use? I own seven Emersons, but haven't used any of my current ones to the extent of knowing this. But I have gotten a tiny bit of speckling on my La Griffe just from being carried, but I think that's black oxide or something. I plan on using the A-100 quite a bit, though.
Thanks for any info/experience.

P.S.: If I'm right, I think the gray satin coating is tougher than the black ti coating. At least it seems that way on the ones I have. Any ideas on that?
