But how are the blades? I couldnt give a hoot what it looks like 
The blades are 420HC BOSS treated just like all the standard models.
Yes, the different color schemes on the Bantams do wear. I have a 284 model that sees almost daily pocket carry. It has some wear on the corners. I can see them wearing quicker if pocket carry shares space with keys and/or tools. The model on sale I believe is a 285 with pocket clip and 3-1/8 blade. Mine is only 2-3/4”
