Photos SR101 Patina

Good lookin patinas fellas. Love the look of a well used blade.

Look up Bilby. A cute native marsupial. Delicious barbecued and slapped between two buns with a slice of pineapple and lashings of smokey bbq sauce.

Ahhh, Bilbies (Bilbys, Bilbi?). Now that I’ve seen photos, I think I saw them at the wildlife park I went to outside Adelaide when I was Down Under. Cute little things. I wouldn’t think they had enough meat on them to be good eatin’. Best I remember, not much larger than a gray squirrel here in the States.

Looks like a opossum mixed with a rat, and a rabbit.

I'll probably never get the chance to try a Bilby burger.

Older pic of my RMD LE:

(The RMD one sees more batoning than the smaller blades, so the patina goes through "wax on, wax off" phases.)

Wow !! I’m loving these pics ! I really really need to send out my BG ASH to have stripped

Vert nice patina and knife! How did you get that particular patina? Is this a stripped Ratmandu?

Cool Kniferman! I dig that! If that was a Hotrod it would be a legit "Sleeper"

There is a contest. It’s going on now!

Patina contest Win shop credit!!!!

Sir…are you cooking with a Nesmuk… Sorry for late reply... if I was a betting type of person, I'd blame the delay on alcoholic beverages... That's not quite a Nessmuk... it's Cold Steel's take on Canadian Belt knife. I got it out of curiosity for the shape and the dirt cheap price point...

30 minutes boiling vinegar.

Does the boiling vinegar effect the res-c? I’m assuming to get the entire blade you’d have to have a portion of the handle slightly in the boiling vinegar..?

no not at all; light vinegar smell for a couple days.
