This is a fake Police I got scammed on eBay. Thought I would practice some etching on it!

Thanks guys!

@SPeedholes - I must have my notifactions set up weird. I usually get an update when someone posts. I like the PPT but I just wish it was finger flickable.

Thanks guys, @Jack - This was done with a Ferric Chloride acid bath. About 50/50 with distilled water. Soak for 40ish minutes before rinsing. Allow to air dry without touching the blade. @Jazz - Thats the plan. Throw it on the WE and bring out a spooky edge. :D I @ Nasgul - Funny story. I actually t...

Does this count?

A pair of P'kals. Modded the one with an acid bath and stonewash. https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-y2Fiuy-tcQU/VTqedF3nMFI/AAAAAAAACGE/ECRcM6A6fh8/w820-h615-no/IMG_20150423_120847~2-001.jpg https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-S27wdU6ah-o/VTqdpskQsxI/AAAAAAAACFk/4aFGK42aOao/w820-h615-no/IMG_20150423...

Haha, Thanks Remnar. Its hard to show the wonderful details of each knife when they look so small!

Not the best picture but it's almost all of the collection

Thanks Bronis! I'm really happy with how it came out :)

Thanks. Ikea is the place to get them.
They don't lock.. but I don't have anyone around my place that I wouldn't trust.

Picked up the new Toxic Ladybugs. Cute little savages!

Now that is a sweet looking patina, Newtron. Very nice! What was your method? Thanks :) Basically I started by sticking Opinels into fruits but found there was too much fruit acid.

Thanks guys :) The Caly is a collector for me. I purchased it to use and put the patina on.. now can't bring myself to mess with it. The manbug I just got the other night and I suspect my wife will be adopting that one! I started by sticking Opinels into fruits but found there was too much fruit aci...

I don't think I can get the WHOLE thing into one picture. But these are my collector pieces I keep in some display cases https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-1v10hpMCSNE/VRGkCf8PruI/AAAAAAAAB_U/QVtiD10cVpc/w321-h571-no/20140221_113804-002.jpg https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-SvRGq3gGAuM/VRGkDYGEniI/...
