People ask about the Baking. But the Army puts those things thru a lot worse. The Scope I just looked up how much heat it could take on line since it wasn't Military.
I have seen Knives advertised as having Cerakote. Is it the same stuff I am using? Or is there a type of Cerakote that requires it to be Baked into the Metal. NIC sells two types. The one I use and another Coating that requires Baking after application. They don't call it Cerakote thou. They just call it High Temp Coatings.
Just wondering if the Cerakote would hold up on a Knife. I have not had any problems with it chipping or wearing off. But a Knife would be used a little different then a Scope. I know Guys who coated their Mags and have had no problems. Here is their Web Site.

When I win the Knife Raffle, ill Multi Cam it in Cerakote  |
If you don't mind me responding to your question on knives with Cerakote, the new Emerson I have has a Cerakoted blade. I had an earlier Commander a few years ago with Black T, and wasn't impressed with the coating, it started wearing immediately. I'm pretty rough with my knives. But the Cerakote is holding up very well. Right now, it's my favorite coating. I've cut dirty rope, and even cut through a pop can with it, and the scrapes buffed out. Hope I answered your question.
