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.

Blade - 3 1/2''
Handle - 4 1/2''
Hand rubbed to 600 grit, with a patina
Scales are Cocobolo

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.
