Is this doable?

[knives_in_nature]

So I have a halo 5 in black and I'm wondering if I could possibly spray paint it a cool camo color. If so, what's the best way to do it? Any advice appreciated :thumbup:

The paint won't stick, the blade needs to be roughed up significantly and that might ruin the blade, I'd suggest a Cera-kote service like Josh at Razor Edge Knives - http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...harpening-Regrind-Cerakote-Service-(pic-heavy!!)

What about the handle?

Unless you do a coating that can adhere to the aluminum (ceracote, duracoat etc.) It will "rub" off
also probaly best not to coat the inside due to possible thickness build up and. Possible firing problems.

The handle is made from Aluminum so I can be Cerakoted aswell.
as long as everything important is taped of, it'll fire just fine.
You can ask Josh about this for better answers
