C  Light bright colour whenever possible.  Makes it much easier to see if you put it down or drop it, so less likely to get lost.

I am a recent convert to black Oxide and I can say I really really enjoy it actually. I'd probably buy my next multitool in BO too if that says anything.  :tu:

I used to say SS too but now I'm like  :think:

I usually don't carry BO tools (the Million Post LM Surge being the exception) and I usually stick to stainless tools.  I don't like paying more for a BO version that is going to get worn off and scratched up faster.

I know the coatings are better than they used to be, but I don't really do a lot of ninja stealth operations behind enemy lines these days, so I don't really need the non-reflective benefits of BO.

I like both.  I carry both.  Theres something very appealing to my eye the shiny Spirit, I polished my Wave as a result.  BO is also very appealing to my eye.  No night ops for me either but it just looks great.  I say get one of each.

The reason all my night-ops are disastrous is because my Spirit is too shiny. I never get near the Cheeto's before I am discovered. I tried wrapping the spirit and tools in black electrician tape but it just gums everything up  :ahhh

I really love the look of black oxide. My Surge, Rebar, and Super Tool 300's and all black oxide. I only bought the ST300'S because they were both only $35 at walmart!
