Sharpie?

[Jason Fry]

Is it acceptible to use a black sharpie for dye highlights? I'm thinking I'd have better control dying some black letters on a tan sheath with a fresh sharpie than with a tiny brush and regular black dye. They'd be raised letters on an otherwise plain sheath. Opinions?

Its been done many times before.

Bingo!!! , Jason. You are absolutely correct. It works just like dye.....only a lot easier and celaner.

Jason, look for the industrial sharpies with the red lettering on the side, instead of the regular versions. I have found they are a bit "blacker" where the regular ones tend to be more purple.
