I see this is steel and not powder coated, but is it at least black? Thanks.

It has a pretty heavy duty textured black paint. It looks great and very rugged.

It has a black coating. This is a very substantial knife. You will like it very much.

Yes. It is black. It is the typical anodized black you see on aluminum. It does wear when carried in the pocket and the raised parts gets nicely worn showing off the shiny aluminum which I like.

It is solid black. However, keep in mind that it is a "distressed" finish, so there are small imperfections put into the surfaces. Nothing noticeable unless looking very closely.

It is black coated and feels like metal to me. It is intended to go into an oven so could not be plastic. It seems heavy duty so should be durable. We have had no problems with it.

It's a gray and black metal - no coating. If I could take a picture and attach, I would. It's slightly textured, if that helps?

It is definitely black. Has a bit of a sheen to it, not high gloss but not matte either.

The one that I baught, about two months ago, is not stainless steel. It's packed away for the winter now, so I can't go and look, but I'm pretty sure it's black. By the way, I LOVE this grill... The best I've ever had! Great for all types of grilling.

I believe it is just stainless steel. It is not colored, looks to just be the metal and I don't think they would do any type of clear coat...

It is wire mesh that is powder coated black. High quality construction all the way around.

It doesn't seem to be coated with anything. It was not super shiny to start with. But it does a good job.

I think it is painted steel, I have had mine in my yard for a year and it hasn't chipped or rusted. If it does, we can just spray paint it! It is very sturdy and I love it!

Mine is the uncoated version. I don't see the value of a black coating - it just makes woodcraft harder with a knife that is not easy to see. I don't know the nature f the coating, but most will wear off in time, and you will keep this knife for generations.

It feels like steel to me and it's black...I love mine...I always line it with tin foil though just for easy cleanup...Sara...

No... I believe it's uncoated steel... If you read the products details you can find out more. It's a great bottle. I've had it for two years and I've never had an issue with it.

This is a cast aluminum base as well as the guard. It is a rough texture on both and I am sure that it is not coated. It will turn dull grey if used outdoors but a can of spray paint will give it any color you want. The real industrial ones are galvanized cast iron and cost ten times as much and weight more by a similar multiple. They are made by Crouse-Hinds among others. Please ignore the other two answers as I am an industrial electrician that has worked with these things for 40 years.

Yes it is black. Works very well. A textured surface similar to the BB holsters.
