heat

Darrel,
I asked this question in another post but what is the coating on the black bladed HEAT ?
JOCKO
 
I did not spec the coating but from what I can gather it is a step up from Teflon of the past. It is supposed to be a little tougher~
 
The folded liner concept is interesting.

Anyone know what the liner thickness is?
 
we got our first shipment a few days ago and I'll tell, you , very impressed with this one! Good job Camillus and Mr.Ralph!

It is my wife's favorite knife yet!

I have ordered the Heat at www.knifeworks.com . And while it is on its way, I have come across a picture that shows a slightly different Heat.

Here is a picture from knifeworks.com http://www.knifeworks.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=4770&HS=1

and here is another one http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=29701

While the second one has holes to reverse the pocket clip, the first one doesn't. The second has the brand name on the blade and the first one doesn't.

Back to my question: are these the same?
Has anybody got a Heat from www.knifeworks.com ? If yes, which one?


Regards,

Speaker,
Good question! Actually, they are two different knives. The first one without the Camillus etch is the plain Heat. The photo was probably taken with a proto knife. The second is the Heat with the black coating. Same knife, two different finishes. There is still no definite answer on just what the coating is but I would go with what Darrel Ralph says.

I received my Heat frome Knifeworks a couple weeks ago. It does not have the black blade, but it does have the Camillus etch on one side and ROBO POWER / AUS 8 on the other side. both sides of the scales have holes for the pocket clip, and there is even a wrench and additional attachment screws in the box to facillitate changing the pocket clip to the alternate side.
 
Thanks for the answers!

I hope I will get one without black coating - just don't like it :)

I also hope the two different versions feature the same high quality in materials and assembly.

Thanks
 
Speaker,
Both the black blade and the silver blade are the same high quality.
The pics I posted are of the prototype.
The production knives are marked with the Robo power , Camillus, Aus8, and D. Ralph on the knife.

I hope this clears up the confusion.
