The Baer in your pics looked coated?. If so, what with? Thanks
That is the older Baercoat. Nice finish.
I really like the Melonite. Very different finish and tougher than nails.
And I'm a huge fan of hard chrome.
The reissue Series 70 is in line for 2013 for a full-house custom job with this local guy
