That looks great.I have a polished one too,though not as shiny as yours.:)
 
Wow.. What did you use. Damn that looks good.


Actually, I stumbled upon a metal polishing place while I was at work. His shop does mostly car parts and in large quantities but he was willing to do this small job for me. Turns out that it was tougher than he thought and it took longer than he estimated. (About an hour and forty-five minutes, I think he said.)

The first time I took it to him the knife was complete but it wasn't polished as well as it could have been near the screws so I took it apart and had him finish it in pieces and is now more consistent.

Titanium polishes up really well, even better than the stainless steel of the blade. I miss the tackiness of the unfinished scale but it sure seems to slide in and out of my pocket much easier.

The jury is still out as to whether I like it or not. ;)
 
Looks gorgeous but I imagine its gonna be susceptible to smudges, fingerprints and pocket microscratching. But its sure purdy in that photo, not to mention that its a zan to boot....sorry, just jealous. That one of my favs.
 
Thanks for the feedback. I'm a little surprised that there has not been any negative comments. Really, I just had it done because it was kind of a user and had it turned out badly I wouldn't have cared that much. Now that it's all shiny and void of scratches or dings I'm probably going to carry it less.
