You're the man Matt! I have had success on stainless in the past, but had one go very poorly last week, time to look at changing my process a little.

Mat great job as always. I have the same tumbler it’s was well worth the money especially with 25 percent off coupon lol. I built a dolly to put it on and I roll it outside the shop because it’s loud…lol

Awesome new workshop, I really like those wooden walls ! Could you perhaps make a video on non-poisonous stone wash finishes, for knives that get into contact with foods, like for chef knives etc. ?

You can etch in just vinegar but it takes forever

Great video Matt! I’ve learned so much from your content. Do you have a video on how you shape and sand the scales on a stonewashed blade?

Thank you! And I don’t think I have one on that process!

Love to see you and tyrell knifeworks releasing the exact same video. Makes it super easy to compare and contrast methods, as well as single out parts that apply to my process

Is his process similar to mine?

@FfUbeamz

​@gentrycustomknives8008 exactly the same except he coats the blades in mineral oil after cleaning the acid off. The mineral oil helps the dark oxides stay on the knife. Tyrrell seems to get a bit darker finish but he also has some issues with consistent tone across the surface

Great story, greetings from Russia, Bro!🤘

If you want it darker i sand blast mine before etch and after etch neutralize is then coat in oil and let it sit a couple hours for the carbides to set. Then tumble. You get a darker finish when its sand blasted

Congratulations on the new shop! Looks awesome😀. More great knives on the way. Can I ask what % is the apple vinegar/cider? How strong it is? Think we have 5% over here.

Is this the process you would go through for nitro-v stainless or is there a different/better way to acid wash it?
