Lion steel with sleipner steel

[GatorFlash1]

For what it is worth, I have seen a few rusty gayle Bradleys. Russ

This is sad because a little spray with Breakfree CLP will stop any corrosion. Not expensive, get at most sporting goods or gun stores.

I like Sleipner as a super-D2 but it is prone to staining in humid climates even with care. I'm close to the Pacifc Ocean and the SR-2 was exposed to humidity, water, sweat and dust.

What actually happened is that the blade is now stained as in patination. The black spots are the tiny old pits and the discolorations are the stains/patinations. The pits are only on one side (lock side) and from lower front to tip. The stains will not go away with Flitz.

Yeah, what I should have mentioned is that I'm not in a humid climate....I usually do.

Probably if I looked closely my Woodsman would be stained a bit too. It just happens in the outdoors. I like the steel though.

Btw, I really like the RotoLok feature. How are you on it? I see you have a lockbar insert as well. Any lockstick?
