Title: Kershaw A100 Black Oxide
Post by: cody6268 on April 03, 2019, 06:18:13 PM: Currently for sale on that auction site. I didn't know a black Kershaw A-100 even existed. The MTO Encyclopedia doesn't even mention it. Is this some kind of special factory order? It doesn't like like a homemade job with a gun bluing kit to me. Looks like it came from the factory.

I wonder what it will sell for ? I won't be bidding, if anyone here wants it, have at it !

All the knock-offs/copies I've seen have had significant differences from the genuine A100/45516 MTs, mostly in the components.
