I put a satin on the flats of the handle then dipped it in multi-etch for a short time. The mutli-etch removes some of the satin but not evenly..more in a grainy striated pattern. Some of the satin remains in some areas and the other areas have a more sand blasted appearance. I then anodized it at 100 Volts (green anodization). The end results is that the satin areas take on a more blueish-green color and the areas that look sand blasted went to full green. The edges of the handle was then sanded to a satin then anodized bronze.
