ps.where can i find a camo or black gerber gaurdian,i had one 20 years ago and would replace the buck with a guardian in the near future!!!!

I wouldn't do it myself... I have a Buck-184 that someone painted black and the paint is comming off and it just looks ugly... Of cource, I got the knife for a good price because the fool messed up what would have been a really good knife by painting it...

But, it is your knife and there are lots of finishes out there... I wouldn not expect the blade to remain painted however unless you find a really tough finish and I am not sure I am qualified to give a suggestion.

Also, I moved your Sale post... these need to be kept in the classifieds area so that you can mark it sold and such without affecting the other forums...

Also, you might consider looking for an M-9 Bayonet if you want a black blade... Much cheaper and you won't regret messing up your knife later!
