What are you doing gear-wise 2014?

Perhaps you got a duff one. My Omer Mini-laser USA was fine: I used and carried it numerous times without any corrosion problems at all (it has a matt black finish blade). Although I always rinse all of my gear off after use & occasionally oil knife blades. Unfortunately I lost mine early this season, the neoprene pocket I'd made to hold it on my thigh tore off during a dive, didn't notice till later . Carrying a second knife was unnecessary though, so I do not plan to replace it (loved the knife, the sheath could & should be improved - to be more like the excellent Rob Allen Limpet sheath for flat knives).

BTW I accidentally discovered a cheap but effective way to camo my old wetsuit. On holiday last week, I decided to patch-up & change the colouring of my fins to better suit the environment. Obviously the oil paints didn't have time to dry properly & rubbed again my wetsuit while I was carrying them - fortunately the pattern left look pretty good, so I dabbed the fins in a few more places on the my suit and was left with a lightly camo'd suit! Actually it looks pretty good. It will likely gradually wash out until it gets time to dry.
