Hi Guys
I have a trio of work knives I keep in the truck, a general blade, unzipper and falconer spike, they see a fair bit of work and I keep them sharp sharp, patina, colour up, at the moment I spend half my life just giving them a polish to keep em looking shiny clean.
they aren't my stalking knives, just for work and rabbiting etc
Would you think leaving them to generate some colour will do the steel any harm ? Tempted to not polish em to see how they turn out.
any thoughts
cheers
