Hello Rasdan,

I don't have any wootz blades but i have frequently read that Nital is recommended for etching them. Nital is a mixture of ethanol and nitric acid. You can buy it at chemical suppliers. Don't *ever* try to mix it yoursself, if the concentration of the nitric acid gets to high it tends to explode!

Best Regards,
Thilo
