Bead Blast

[Carver]

I`ve got a couple knives that have scratchs on the bead blasted blades.Is there any way to repair or touch up the finish?

More bead blasting helps, but that's why I don't like bead blasting in the first place. It scratches easier and more noticeably than a mirror polish or a brushed finish.

Tape off the handle and bead blast it.
If you check the phone book you should be able to find a place that offers do it your self beadblasting for reasonable rates.
( around $10) for 10 min which is more than enough time to do one blade

There is no such thing as "good enough", either your work is good or it is not. How is your work?

Most auto repair shops will have a bead blast cabinet, too. Those guys will usually do a job for some quick cash on a smoke break for a few bucks.
