stonewashed my Pits

[Johnnie1801]

Nicely done Dirk! Like gbelleh, I'm also curious about which method you used?

[RadioactiveSpyder]

Awesome job! Count me among the folks who'd love to know how you went about doing it so cleanly! Cheers, Radioactive :)

Thanks for the great replies!
Sorry for the confusion , dit not know that pits had allso another meaning :D !

I am a knifemaker for 24 years now so I have two good tumblers ( Raytech) .
Did the stonewash with first coarse ceramic stones and fine resin pyramid shaped small media afterwards .
The stonewash is not too rough so it shows hardly any fingerprints.
Mike Read the designer of the Pits offers the same service on British Blades .

I would not be surprised if the next batch would have a stonewashed handle.
Will try to make a close up picture tomorrow!
kind regards,

Used the 12 inch tumble vibes from Raytec and their stonewash media!

Hi Dirk, would your stonewashing process hide scratches etc on satin blades?

[Joris Mo]

Looks as good as that blade feels in hand! Nicely done Dirk!
