I actually tried to put a patina on my rd9, and made a mistake.

well, I foolishly aded water to the vinegar so I wouldn't use all my moms.
someone on the ranger forum did this for a short soak I think...
but I don't think it's a good idea for a long one... cause i think my blade rusted some... there seeral patches that didn't look anything like the rest of the dark patina, but rust.
well I sanded it off and I'm going to try again.
