GruffaloGriff 1,859 Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Look Good! Out of interest did you make your hall mark stamp or did you have it made? Was think of making/ buying one for myself. Regards Griff 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spsurfer 891 Posted December 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Hi Gruffalo, my stamp and it's story.. A friend of mine and professional knifemaker Rodrigo Mulero from 2Gknives is making the heat treatment of my blades. He's good friend of the official restaurator of the mallorcan cathedral, who is making his engravings. This guy made for me my stamp, carved by hand. But there are several companies who do these, price about 100,-€ Regards Nicolas Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GruffaloGriff 1,859 Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Nice finish. What acid do you use and how long soaking? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spsurfer 891 Posted December 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Gruffalo, this time I used gun blue, I repeated the coating several times, good cleaning with alcohol before (the blade ) and some steel wool between. Regards Nicolas 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
