So I stripped it a week or so ago and it looked great but then I thought I'd try another 'weird' patina on it for fun. I'm not personally in love with it but I thought I'd let you guys see it and get some feedback. It might grow on me, but I think in the long run its gonna get sanded off and maybe I'll try to Clich it or give it a ferric chloride patinaor soething, IDK. Well here it is, some before and after.

It is a interesting looking patina that is for sure... not really my style either! What was it you used to make the patina on there? Mustard? I have thought about stripping down my BK2 also recently but I am just not sure what I would like to do on the blade yet!
 
Yep it was mustard, but unlike the yellow I used on my BK9, I decided to go with the much more acidic spicy brown for this one,lol
