Blue INFI?

[Mtnclimber69]

...I am wondering if you can use a gun-barrel-blue-dye to color a naked INFI blade...?

Hey DM, yeah I am sure Jerry can do it, but could a mere mortal get away with doing it themselves at home?

Dont know....if so it would take a lot of hard work. I experimented with some cold solutions on other steels over the years. None came out the way I expected.

I did. Cleaning /polishing the steel is the key. It looks Great!!!

Certain blues will work on INFI but for some reason will not work on the perimeter edges! Figure that one out!

I'd be interested to know which blueing solutions work. Mainly for trivia's sake

Yes indeed, prep is the key.
