Forced Patina on a Opinel.
on: April 25, 2013, 08:35:11 AM
I was bored yesterday so I put a forced Patina on a Opinel to test out the process. Its the first forced patina I have attempted. I might clean it and start over. I have some ideas for a cool pattern. Just figured I would show you what it looks like in case I clean it off. I left the collar off since i'm not sure what i'm going to do.

Very cool!  I'm going to patina my Condor Tavian, but I think I'm going to try lemon juice and see how it works.
