I do believe that if the Denim HH comes polished. I will wet sand it with 1500grit. Knock the sheen off.

Re: Rough Ryder working man half-hawk
Results after wet sanding (1500) the outside of this knife and doing a 3hr white vinegar soak of the blades!! Wanted to knock the edges of the Micarta down some and satin finish the bolsters. I am happy how it looks!!

Re: Rough Ryder working man half-hawk
Very nice looking knife, John. The vinegar worked well. I have not tried vinegar on any blades, but I have got great patina by forgetting to rinse the blade after cutting fruit.

Re: Rough Ryder working man half-hawk
I did it again.
I liked the 1st one so much I purchased another one with a pocket clip.
I have to stop reading all the posts. It makes me want one. I have too many knives already I will never use them all. Well the one good part about knife accumulating it's a lot cheaper then Guns.

That's why they call us collectors (or sometimes accumulators. Collectors have focus.).
