Very nice. Looks like you picked it up at an antique store.
Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

this why I don't clean all my str8s to polish some just look better with the history still showing

I love the way the point of the razor lines up with the wedge side of the scales perfectly.

I etched the steel with ferro3chlorid. Normally you try to get a homogeneous color on the blade. In this case I touched the blade to early, polished a little here or there to get this cloudy style on it.

Oh man! I will have to try the coffee bath when I do bone scales again. How long did you let them soak?

Approx. 24 hours. After that the bone is a little bit soft, but this will gone away after 1-2 hours of drying. The coffee is not very deep in the material. You see it, if you cut a test piece. But the coating is relatively durable. Otherwise it would gone away at the buffing process.
