Lets see your Patinas!

I just forced a light patina on my new SFO #85 Easy Open. The area I reside in gets very wet and humid, so I like to force a light patina using lime juice on my new keepers.

Nice EO 85 you have there! I love that single blade version.

What knife is this again? I always like the look but can never remember what that pattern is called?

Great Eastern Cutlery #71 Bull Nose. The pattern is the sodbuster.
 
Some before and after pics of my 2 most recent carried knives. The patina pics are a little old too but you get the idea.




 
Here's vinegar patina with a "hamon line":D Wrapped in vinegar soaked toilet paper then rip the edge off. I redid the hamon line on this one but didn't get a pic ;-(

Best regards

They are kind of pretty at this stage of the game...








I decided to break in my new knives by just tossing them in my kitchen cutlery drawer, and using them for food prep, I treat them just like my other kitchen knives...
 
This one is coming along very nicely.

Here is what it looked like when I first got it, about 9 months ago:
