Hello everyone, I've been lurking for a while on the forums and just decided to make my first post today. I've had a BK2 for a few months now and yesterday I decided to force a patina on it. I've been working on this patina since yesterday, because I didn't like my first results, etc. I also had some trouble with accidental rusting from the vinegar during the patina process, but after today's patina it came out well.
As for the rest of my knife story, I usually just wrap it in first aid tape, to help out with the grip. I'm still using the stock sheath and I don't mind its deficiencies that much.
Anyways, here's the pics, I hope to add another layer of natural patina as time goes by.

Little mexican skull my gf gave me that I keep on the lanyard
Hope you liked the pics! It's my first patina, now I'm working on a machete patina out of boredom
