Ramblings of aftermarket stonewashing (Knife Content)
Published: 3 years ago
I recently got into stone washing some of my blades. The initial reason for it was that a few of my knives were quite scratched up... usually from trying to use "the beast" stone on my KME, but that's beside the point.
I express my thoughts and the trial/errors I hit along the way, and found what works best for me.
I haven't tried to acid-wash the blades first, as I'm not super concerned about the color of the blades, just easing the scratches.
