Looks great. I think you have gave me the inspiration to do mine this coming weekend. What did you use to force the patina?

I just regret not chemicaly etching the SYKCO logo before stripping the coating. I think had I etched first, it would really pop.

Before the knife is stripped, put some PC board etchant (ferric chloride) on the logo. Let it sit for a while. Clean it off and repeat the process a few times.
