Lurker with a chipped neon green Wyvern—yup, definitely less durable 😅 managed to scratch off some of the cerekote with accidental bumps against a wooden shelf, a ceramic bowl, an Ikea table (this is why I can’t have nice things)… The aluminum itself wasn’t dented though Edit, if you’re curious: ![Screenshot 2023-03-17 at 3.40.50 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/5/3/953ce31c643a17d188c32c9e47dfe798968cd418.jpeg) ---

Not sure if it’s just the green wyvern but I have a cerakote yoyo that’s been hit against my tile floors and still looks flawless. I might just be lucky but I always thought this was supposed to be a sturdy coating. ---

**Consistently** good finishers are hard to come by these days. Not saying that is the reason in this particular instance, but there very well could be a range of buildup or small inconsistencies in the process. ---

Yeah! My pearl one took a minor hit and its spotless. The cerakotes do feel different between pearl and green so maybe different ones have different durability as well? ---

the aluminum is anodized because any kind of paint fails to cling to it…any kind. You can also coat it with very hard layers, see oven-baked ceramic powder paints, such as The Shield by Jazz-yo… but they will never cling and in the event of an impact, first and then they will detach. ---

The funny thing is how Cerakote is advertised on its website for being superior in so many ways to anodization. Yeah no. ---

I have a number of cerakote knives and they hold up really well. I love One Drop but this seems more like an application error than a weakness in cerakote. ---

I wonder if the glossier looking Cerakote finish is more durable than the chalky green? Anybody have the white finish with damage yet? Honestly I think I’d prefer the chalky ones even if it is less durable. ---

My white Kamuraiju scratched very easily. I do love how it feels but I was surprised by how easily I marked it. I have another anodized OD and that by comparison feels much less fragile. ---
