A couple of years ago, I picked up a Navy MK1. It's a nice knife, but I never could warm up to the black coating on the blade. So, I finally stripped it off. Nope, it's not perfect, and has some scratches. For better or worse, I got what I asked for.
Oddly enough, I'm OK with the black pommel. And, it still functions just fine.

Just use it.
