Patina Gallery

[BP_]

This little 83 Lockback has been in my pocket every day for the last few weeks.

Here's all of my knife patina.

The patina on that Stallion looks idyllic to me.

Thanks, buddy, I got very fortunate with the sun at just the right low angle.

Patina on three old users in my collection: A Case 6.5375 large Stockman (left), an old Robeson aluminum-scaled Stockman (bottom right), and an Ulster Scout knife that my father-in-law carried for several decades.

I love the patine that old U.S. Schrade 1095 steel takes on after a little use.

Several old U.S. Schrades in my collection - all were bought used and had some level of damage to the blades. I usually convert them to Sheepfoot style.

Two U.S. Schrade #77OT 'Improved Muskrat' patterns. The one on the right is new, the left one had a broken blade tip and a bent tip on the other, so both were converted to Wharncliffe/Sheepfoot styles.
