How’s my knife coming along?
if any more of these are made, I would be interested
Does anyone have recommendations for polishes for aluminum? I'm nearly complete with the sanding of my blade and hilt, but I wanted a semi shiny look. Since I did the bevel by hand, it's a little rough so I plan to make it a used blade, like the user has continued to sharpen it over time. It can be a little weathered, is what I'm getting at.
Great! Thanks for the tip... I got to get a higher grit sandpaper to get it even smoother. But first I need to get rid of some of the imperfections that are still visible.I use Brasso and Mother's Mag aluminium polish. These are great and will finish a high sandpaper finish to a satin look I would think. I polish mine on a mop to get them super shiny, then use the other polishes. But yeah, I would try going up to like a 2000 grit, then polish, for the look you want
Awesome job!
