Thank you. I picked up some mustard packets and put a thin even coating on the blade and let it dry on there for 15-20 minutes. I then wiped it off with a paper towel and repeated it many times until I was happy with it. The key is to not put too much. You want the vinegar in the mustard to be thin enough to react with the oxygen in the air. If it’s too thick you will see diminished results. At the base of the blade you see that really dark stuff? Thats my attempt at cold blueing. It did not work so I sanded it off and then did the mustard trick.
Good video, not alot of people mess with the serrations, but its worth it if you can take care of them, primarily spydercos serrations
Tysm! Positive comments are refreshing.
Just what I was looking for. Waiting for my k390 serrated endura in the mail 😎

Hello, how did you get such a beautiful patina on the blade?

I just send my back to Spyderco to sharpen, they didn't charge a thing!
That’s awesome. I didn’t know they would sharpen serrations. Let me know what the turn around it. I also kinda wanted the challenge
