Bit of a difference to this blade. Just starting it's Patina Journey cutting some hot meat and vegetables. I have some catching up to your 50 shades.

I was surprised by this result (it seems to me that the first time this blade was used it did not take this kind of shades unless my memory fails me)

It's still not there yet but it's getting better.
It's not actually green as it appears in the last picture, that would be cool if it was though.

The day I got home from the rendezvous I used the new 77 to cut up mangos and apples for the kiddos. Last night it joined me on a work event for some more slicing.
Patina looking good!

Well done sir! That’s the appropriate look for that beautiful piece of art

Inherited patina
There are no other markings on the palette (?) knife so not sure what orders the initials come in, what they stand for or where it's from.
Guessing that this poor Joseph Elliot & Sons table knife was used for something other than eating as there are flecks of paint on both sides of the blade, but you never know what might have made up Victorian diets...
I've been trying to find an approximate age for the Lockwood Brothers knife and the best I can come up with is that it was made somewhere between 1837 and the early 1900s, but could be way off with that. If anyone has any clearer idea it would be great to have your input!
