THis was a real nice piece from KC. I would like to see more of this type of coating. Awesome knives coming from Ohio Boss:cool::thumbup:


Its not perfect and has some irregularity to it, but its sweet:cool:

Its a shade of green...OD. Not sure exactly.

I saw a nmsfno with it that was posted as well, but wasnt fast enough to grab it too.;):D

Hey, I think I know what you are talking about. I think I have a AD with it, it's very thin and light in thickness, I think it would show a lot of dimples if the blade wasn't smooth though so I was thinking underneath has to be satin or DC... I didn't see NMSFNO though... or any other blades in that color...

Good question Will...


Right now I can only speak of its look and feel cause I havent used it, but it looks and feels like the original straight handled series. It is smooth :cool:

Yeah...smooth coats. They were nice.:thumbup: I had a Steel Heart ergo and a Steel Heart II that both had smooth black coats. The coats were tough as nails too. I beat the snot out of my SHII and all the coat did was rub into the blade. Cool if it came back for a couple of runs.
 

Here is a comparative shot. It's a smooth coating and sort of a flat color instead of the crinkle.
 
That's nice! Reminds me of the military foliage green color. Looks like it would match the ARMY's ACU very well. :thumbup: :cool:
 
Hmmmm... so the consensus is that it is more of a smooth coat.

But I don't see anyone who has tested the coating... :confused:

My question is.... how does it wear???

Someone go beat it! :) :thumbup:
 
That combo looks sharp kh!:thumbup: I wish OD or foliage G10 was offered more often than it is. Satin/OD would be a "every knife" purchase for me if offered.
 
Very nice, OD is my favorite coating. I really like that smooth OD:thumbup:
