another one of those pesky mod threads that just eat up space...(bk11)

Love the bluing!
I have stripped down my BK2 and am getting ready to blue her too.
I've browned a few blades before, but bluing is something a little different.
Cant wait to give it a shot!

Get at it man, its a cool little mod. Id recommend having some 0000 steel wool on hand for buffing and giving a smooth finish, also some sand paper if you like the two tone finish. I used 220 because I like the scratchy rough look since they r users anyway. Just follow the directions on the bottle and its a piece of cake. Then lightly sand the spots you wish to be lighter, then reapply and sand again.

Side note I wish it was more of a gel so I can give it a spalted look by applying with cotton balls. Its too watery and runs all over the place tho. Good luck man and post pics of the process.

Thanks. The 2 was the first I tried and the high grind comes out real cool with the blue. Keep us posted with the progress and take tons of pics.
