Ti is pretty soft compared to hardened steel, and grinds pretty easily (again, compared to hardened steel). That being said, it still took me about 3 hrs to grind these scales down...

That finish is rustic! Literally, it looks like rust. :) Contouring looks great.

Update: dropped her back in another oxi bath to get a little darker, and even out the coloring a bit. Might give her one more round later today too...
