Wow these all look great! I’m torn between using my knives on something that will assuredly create a patina and just seeing what happens over the years. I guess I should try both!

Blade swap blue jeans handled RR work knife has seen quite a bit of pocket time lately and its finally showing it. QUITE useful in the kitchen on a road trip where we couldnt find a good knife so it got passed around and used by many over that weekend. Ive been using it accordingly since. Wasnt super sold on this size and style knife but, like the little Peanut did before, its grown on me and proved itself over the last couple weeks and I cannot seem to put it down.



Alot of amazing patina shots guys, keep em coming. Im a sucker for beautiful knives but an even bigger one for those that have seen use and show it! May the Patina thread live on.

Some progression shots of my Trusty Rusty 14.

Bit of patina after the first few days of using it.

This was after a couple months.

This was after about a year and a half. Pic from maybe a month ago I think. Blade is now just mostly a uniform medium gray.

This one doesn’t show the patina too well. I might have to get a better picture later.
