so i was sitting here fooling around with my Becker Necker, and the coating got to reminding me of HA3...
so i went and got my Inova X5T-HA and was giving it a massage, when i realized, wow, this is probly the single toughest coating on a flashlight in the world... maybe not, but @ least in the running, y'know?
and then i was wondering, could you put this HA3 finish on a blade? ppl test the HA3 on the Inova X5T-HA by scratching it with a knife, and it fends of scratches VERY well... you really have to put a little muscle into it to scratch the HA3 off of this flashlight with the tip of a knife...
so then, assuming that you COULD put this HA3 finish on a blade, would there be a benefit to it? i wonder, since i don't recall seeing it done b4 (if it's been done, could you point me in the right direction?), and it's so damn tough, i'd think it'd make a good blade-coat...
or are the current blade coatings (BT2, etc) already superior to HA3?
what'cha think?
