I striped and forced a patina on my ESKabar today 
I don't know that I did it correctly but for now I think the patina looks good.
I used white vinegar and lime juice soaked jute twine.
I didn't take the coating off the handle, I wanted to keep that some what rust proof.
Next on the list is the BK2 and the KaBar LDK.
Another thing that I did since I striped it was a convex grind on it. I kinda like it better. I didn't want to do it with the coating on because I thought it would look weird.
