Do you sell the blades you make? You keep posting beauties but I've never seen a for sale page for them.

Cold Rust Bluing Methods
Great link to some recipes I'm trying when I get my own nitric next week.
The bluing compounds are what I'm interested in, but the links to other sites might help you out B.

reply to the OP.
Do a Google search for Etching as an art form. The processes are very similar and will help you to understand the process bettter.
Wikipedia will have details and many other sites will also.
A bookseller has these:

Have fun and do a lot of practice work. It took me a semester to become consistent, and less than a year to have to begin again after not working in the medium.

I'd recommend any book by Jim Hrisoulas.
Amazon.com: jim hrisoulas: Books
Honestly all three of his books are the best books I've ever read on forging and knifemaking. All well worth the price and he covers nitric acid etching, aqua regia, and others. The info on making all the damascus patterns is well worth the price. Once I get a power hammer and hydraulic press I'm hoping to embark more into that territory.Geezer likes this.
