Has anyone done a mustard or vinegar patina on SR101. I have on 5160 and 1095 and it comes out great, but I dont recall ever seeing SR101 with a patina. I have a M9 LE that I am considering putting a patina on.

SR101 gets a patina just by looking at it on a humid day. But vinegar or kitchen use will do it even faster.

Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Nice pictures and thanks for the info. Have you noticed the patina protecting the steel of do you still get small areas of orange oxydation on the blade?

I think it rusts less easily, but it still will rust. Best use a little oil now and then.

What kind of oil do you guys use? I'm thinking mineral oil would be best...

I have always been afraid to patina my knives.
