Default 5 Gunong

Finally took some pictures of the gunong I've acquired over the last few months. Nothing spectactular, just good solid pieces.






This next piece didn't show much pattern after an etch. It had some pitting, so I decided to give it a soak in EvapORust, a non-aggressive rust remover. The solution was old and about worn out so I left it in overnight. The blade came out almost black, and when I wiped it off, show a very interesting pattern. Almost a pamor pattern. Never had that happen before. Don't understand the chemical process that took place, but I'll take luck over skill any day.





Thanks for looking,
Steve
