I have heard tell of an ancient shinobi practice of dipping blades into a substance (after sharpening) in order to darken the edge and tip of the blade. Combined with coating the steel itself this would prevent the blade from reflecting light at all. Very stealthy and very interesting - anyone has any idea of a good substance to accomplish this with a modern steel?
Ronin Tactics does this to one of their signature knives, the "Ronin Tanto". Has a really cool look and seems obviously useful for a pure fighting blade.
