I had to up my cutting board game to accommodate my knives.
Earned patina from my son making guacamole.

 

[bozack]

Earned through use.

That is funny, it did come out nice. Out of curiosity, how long did you leave it in there?

is that a 77 in gabon ebony? thanks

 

[Ken44]

This one was forced, as you can tell.
I picked it up at a flea market years ago, and it had a couple of small spit pits, so I went ahead and forced it.


Used apples and oranges, and cut up a few potatoes in between.

Just had some sausage with spicy mustard, yellow mustard and low sugar ketchup that left a really nice patina.

Not mine, but it looks like a Great Eastern #73 drop point.

 

[Lemmy Caution]

Maybe not my most impressive earned patina, but here's the start on a new constant companion.
