The article missed the mark. Color case hardened finish durability is overhyped. Its like fancy wrapping paper on a fragile gift. Lets focus on substance, not just aesthetics.

This article is missing the point. Color case hardening is overrated! Just slap on some cerakote and call it a day. Who needs fancy finishes when you could have durability and customization?

Color case hardening is a timeless art, not just a fad. Cerakote may be durable, but it lacks the character and history of a beautifully finished gun. Quality over quantity, always.

Seriously, who even cares about the durability of a color case hardened finish? Its all about the aesthetics! If it wears off, just embrace the patina. Lifes too short to worry about minor scratches.

Durability matters when youre investing in something. Aesthetics fade, quality lasts.

This whole debate about the durability of color case hardened finishes is overblown. Who cares if its not the most scratch-resistant? It adds character and charm to firearms, and thats what really matters.

Scratch resistance matters when youre investing in a firearm. Character is great, but durability shouldnt be ignored.

Isnt it just a matter of personal preference? Some may value durability over aesthetics, while others prioritize the unique look of a color case hardened finish. Different strokes for different folks, right?
