I rusted the stop pin on my CTS204P Military within an hour of putting it in my pocket :rolleyes:Evil D wrote:My M4 Manix 2 got spot rust just from carrying it, even AFTER wiping it down with Tuf-Glide. After that I washed the blade and forced a patina with white vinegar and it still got spotty. I think a lot of it is the acidity of one's body sweat.

Looks like clouds, awesome patina! How did it form, was it forced? It looks really nice and functional.BravoTango wrote:Just thought I'd share the patina on my new M4 blade.

Re: Show Your Patina!
I cleaned off the patina from year one and started fresh a few months ago. The thin convex is still a pleasure to use.
