I’ve carried a couple Swiss Army Knives over the years, but mostly as a kid and never since discovering knife obsession. For better or worse, I recently found custom SAK scales and the whole world of custom tool combinations. Could get expensive fast!

While most everything I’ve seen is appealing, the bright polish finish on Victorinox blades and tools just doesn’t fit my eye. Does anyone do treatments like sandblasting or acid washing to produce a more matte finish?
