I know there have been a lot of these threads lately. But I still wanted to throw mine up. This is the first time I've ever attempted any kind of knife modding.

I would suggest you start using the knives vs. eating the knives. Makes it easier in the event they don't come out topside...
 
Nice job. I've not been a fan of forced patinas to this point but that's a nice one you got there. I may have to rethink my opinion (and possibly plot evilness for one of my 11s)
