Sounds like the difference between CG and Coated CG (That's going to get confusing at so point <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> ) might be more substantial than I would have thought. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />
You got that right, Jeff. CG normally stands for Combat Grade. And that usually means a coated blade. We've got to come up with a way of distinguishing between Combat Grade and Competition Grade. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

And I guess I'm a little confused. I was under the impression that a coated Competition Grade knife IS a Combat Grade knife. If there's a difference between them, what is it? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Jerry had asked the guys over at BF and probably on the BC forum as well if they would be interested in a slightly cheaper unfinished uncoated blade. It might be considered "Test Grade" because he said the blades were in basicly the same state in which they do testing. Somebody else may know more and can elaborate on Competition Grade.

One other interesting thing that I like about these blades is that they have a nice convex ground edge. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
