Shining and protecting Satin Finish Blades

[The Towcutter]

I just got a Satin Finish Microtech Hawk. I want to use a "polish" to clean and shine the blade. I don't want to alter the finish in any way, just clean and shine it. I have some Flitz non abrasive paste that I use on my Spydercos, but the microtech has a better finish on the blade and I don't want to mess it up. Any help is appreciated

I use flitz on all of my blades, no matter the finish (mirror, satin, bead blast, etc.)...it should work fine. But you may want to wait for a response from someone who actually owns a Microtech (my first Microtech is still on its way to me via USPS).

and it was polished using Mothers Mag and Aluminum Polish! Let me know how you like I think it's very, very

The above mentioned polish is great and is non abrasive. I used it on a stonewashed MT blade( Socom Elite ) and acheived a cross between satin to mirror still with the stonewash effect. AWESOME looking! It takes a while to acheive it though. I polished the blade 3 or 4 times a night for about a month before I was satisfied. I currently have a satin L-UDT that I am using the Mothers on and it is getting shinier by the day!

Great stuff, you should be able to find it at an auto parts store or at your local Wal-Mart.

Zen...........................I think you will be pleased.
