Some of these blues are tough to consider blue. Does Super Blue count? :D I have a glow in the dark back spacer on my techno. The one that looks black... is black, but it is blue lined. I have a few more that aren't pictured. I think I have a blue Rescue somewhere.

Thanks. It just so happens that I like S110V, K390, S90V and Seki models. All the sprints seem to be some shade of blue.

I'd like to show off some of the nicer blues. Somehow with all the shades of blues, it looks like the color gets washed out.

Thanks Filoso! Though I no longer have the knife, it's still one of my favorite pictures!

Anybody interested in this patina with any of their knives in Super Blue...That came from cutting a steak, mushrooms and asparagus. Let it sit out for a couple hours before cleaning and that's what I got.

Blood patinas make that nice blue color. I stumbled upon a chef knife forum once. It was a pretty cool.

I don't like patina, prefer to have my blades look shiny (which is also why I'm not a big fan of stonewashed blades). But this one of yours - I have to say this is pretty lovely. Looks like multi coloured damascus.

Unfortunately I am seldom successful in copying other people's work. I would probably mess up my Calypso Jr. ... I'm too afraid of that.

Congrats on your success! You win the price, if anyone asked me. :)

I like the color! I'm planning to get one of these eventually. It's been a long time since I've had a Tenacious.
