Case hardening is a process that hardens the Steel on the outside but still leaves the inner core of the Steel relatively soft to help absorb impact & pressure, Most Colt style Revolvers have their frames in a Color Case Hardening which is the same but different process is performed to bring out the nice Blues, Reds & Light Tones that make them beautiful pieces of Working Art.
