    Ok...
    So I've seen many blades that are etched. How exactly they did it I'm not exactly sure.
    I've been watching some YouTube videos on the subject and it seems that it's just a simple matter of salt water and either vinegar or plain water with salt and some voltage.

    But the ones I've seen done are rather klunky and messy and not the fine works of art I see on many blades.

    Any thoughts on how to accomplish a nice etching?

    Do you own any etched blades with fine detail etchings?

    Pics are awesome as always.
