My 5th - Drop Point With A Patina

[bigern26]

Here Is my 5th knife, A drop point skinner
I decided to try a patina on it using Horseradish.
I kept the tang silver to add a little contrast
I like how it turned out.

3/16 - 1095 Heat Treated by Peters Heat Treat
OAL - 8 15/16''
Blade - 3 1/2''
Handle - 4 1/2''
Hand rubbed to 600 grit, with a patina
Scales are Cocobolo

let me know what you think!!

How do you like the patina? In the pictures it comes across very nice.

Pretty soon we will be seeing tapered tangs from you .

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Ken,

I really like how the patina turned out, I did two different coat with horseradish sauce.

I am happy with the results and how the contrast is with silver and patina on the spine.
