Looks great!!! Nice clean lines. What kind of patina are you going to use?

I used horticulture vinegar on mine. It got dark really fast. My LT Wright Bushbaby has a mustard patina and it looks sweet. I might try the mustard myself.

nice job. how'd you get you lines so clean? i don't see any tape. did you just strip close to the line, and scrape the rest off?

I now like to get all the grind lines out best i can and get a natural patina. Patinas change with use all the time :thumbsup:

Yes I just carefully paint it on with the Q tip just to the very edge of the line taking care not to go over it. One line at a time .

See the 2nd pic that is ready to scrape rinse move to the next line -- than strip the rest of the knife.
