Looks like a great pack around knife. Has the bone changed color over time?

Maybe a little more than patina.

I haven't noticed much of a change. Not like micarta at least.

Hiking buddy developing a nice patina. Just got back from spa treatment from Andy. Don't know what steel it is. Might be A2, 1075, aluminum. All I know is it will take a good edge and easy to get back.

Sweet knife! I like the higher grinds. Spalting doesn't look deep enough to be A-2, it may be O-1
