Left on for 30 minutes, and then touched up a second time. I like it. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics. I need to break down and get a legitimate camera! I would rather buy knives than a camera to take pictures of knives, though... "Brace yourself like a man..." JYD #178

I feel like I need to do something to help protect it, because the SR-77 started developing rust pretty quickly after a really wet overnighter. I'm kinda wishing the guy I bought it from didn't strip it, but I will make it work. "Brace yourself like a man..." JYD #178
