Robert D. 64 Posted July 30 Not the greatest pics. but im pretty happy with it. Aldo W2 with satanite and a canola quench. The person who wants this one wanted it slightly darker so I didnt go full in on the polish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joshua States 1,007 Posted November 2 I've been working on a few kitchen knives for the upcoming show this month and tried a little etching on one of the smaller blades today. I did two 10-minutes vinegar etches, followed by a 10-minute FeCl etch. I probably could have gotten more activity from a finer grit and more etching, but here it is. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
