That's the best looking forced patina I've ever seen... most of them come out looking artificial, but I like how yours looks very natural. How'd you do it?

Maxim and EdipisReks, what did you guys use to apply your mustard (or whatever you used) to get that pattern? It looks really cool to me and I may try it out myself.
i used a crumpled up paper towel and then my fingers.

Edit: found it. So you applied some vinegar first and let it sit before adding mustard? I'm not totally clear on the process of how one does this (newb here :smile1: )

How's that Butch nakiri working out for you Rick?
Really liking it, Dave. It changed my mind about nakiris. I don't know if it was the thinness of the blade or the profile (it's flatter than most nakiris), but it just cuts like a dream. It's become my "go to" when I have veggies to prep.
Butch, if you're reading this, thanks for making such a great knife!
Might be a little off topic but has anyone ever etched a solid blade just to get that super dark color you get from etching?
