Title: First try at saltwater etch
Post by: Bobby Urban on March 28, 2011, 12:36:00 PM

Here is my first try at the saltwater etch tutoral from up top.  Works sweet.  My initials R.U. turned out a little raw but I like it.  Pretty much matches my raw, not so perfect, knife making skills.  I used the cell phone charger and discovered if you have the gator clips backwards it eats the clip instead of etching the blade.  I also put a finish on the handles and made a sheath for the hunter.  All in all, a pretty good weekend in the shop.
