Been working on this for countless hours for the past 4 to 5 days. Not seeking perfection but this will work for me since it’s going to be my new work beater. Nakagawa B2 Mizu Honyaki. Before and After etching

What did you use for the etch? I kinda want to try it to darken some scratched KU for myself.

Boiled some white vinegar and soaked it for couple of minutes. Reacted pretty fast.

Someone is having some fun with their knife, I love it. Did you describe how you mirror polished at all and I missed it?

Long process but first I used Koyo polish to remove etching and patina. Then used Diamond paste then back to Koyo. Did one last pass with diamond paste then finish with Koyo polish.

Thanks! Done vinegar etching in the past but the results were never that great, figured I hadn't prepped the knife well enough. Gonna give it a go!

Boil the vinegar and make sure prep the knife good clean.

I've resolved to stop pining for those knife makers that I'm having a hard time getting when there are a lot of amazing makers who are willing to sell their knives to me. I'll just collect more of their knives.

I thought you were being cheeky about A2 till I saw the aogami 2 later in sentence. I didn't know he did either!

Handle upgrade for the Munetoshi

 

[naptight]

Probably the wrong thread but wondering if anybody has any tips for purchasing raw blonde buffalo horn? I really love the look of the horn on this ashi handle. I want to make a matching handle set for some of my blades with blonde horn and a light colored wood.
