I gave this one some mahogany jigged bone handles and a new Schrade factory blade. I ended up with a tiny gap at the one corner where the bone meets the bolster on one side
. I tried my hand at electro chemical etching and put my new makers mark on the blade. (I've got a few other marks in the works but this one will work for now). There's the option to etch in deep black or simple grey (a/c or d/c). This one is grey (but I've tried the black etch and like that as well). Its a fairly crisp etch but the photo makes it look less defined.

I think the etch really adds to the whole knife.
