This is one I need to get. Don't have a cruwear Spyderco yet. I just wonder if the TiCN coating process will adversely effect the hardness of the blade. And if so, did they allow for that in the heat treatment process? Inquiring minds need to know.

I’m pretty confident there’s no significant change in the hardness of the blade after the coating is applied, But I’ve got no experience or data to confirm that. In my opinion the Taichung TiCN coatings are the nicest (in terms of appearance) of any Spyderco offerings. Maybe Shawn DeadboxHero DeadboxHero can comment on your question.
