    I want to replicate it on a few of my blades. I know it’s proprietary so I’m going to guess it.

    1). Forced patina with vinegar and mustard, then stone wash

    2). Acid wash, then stone wash

    3) acid wash and patina, then stone wash.

    which method do you thinking would achieve a similar result? Or am I totally wrong? Ideas?

    Thanks folks!!

    Here's a good tutorial video about stone washing your knife.
