I'm still working on two sets of bolsters, trying to get each set with a nice blue job, yet each set matching fairly close. The heat bluing I tried today worked, but was lacking, still some blotches, etc.
Here's todays question: Have any of you have good results with a particular steel when bluing? I have plenty of 1095, 1060, d2, but I don't feel I want to keep playing with the 01 any longer, I'll just polish those two sets and use on other folders.
Heck, after looking at Steves beautiful knife on this forum yesterday, I'm even thinking about titanium, but I'm not sure I can get a dark blue like he did.
Thanks guys, I honestly appreciate your input.
