I have a very similar knife to that coming next week. It is a Rosarms Baby with a wicked looking 9 inch bowie with the leather washer handle and a guard It is stainless polished though not parked.
I much prefer bluing and guncoats to parking. Parkerizing was done instead of bluing for military gear because it could be done in huge batches.

So is there anyone who knows how hot you vcan get RES C before anything permanent
happens?
