Ok. I deleted this entire first post rather than just making a new one. Originally, I had a weird patina that I liked. I thought about it a lot, and sanded it off and tried again. I wanted something with a little more character. So may I present the apple cider vinegar / chili sauce patina on a BK16. Still gots to gets me some wood handles and some dead cow hide for it 
I'm loving the old look. Yeah, clich kicks my arse on old looking mods, but this is my first go. I don't have the courage to try etching yet
Hope y'all enjoy it as much as I do. (Iphone pics

Let me know what y'all think. Also post pics of your own old looking new knives
