your house!
YAY! I made here matey, been having a monster pic posting session, I was lucky enough to win a little cracker of a blade from our Raikey, one of his Raikey neckers, so as requested by the big man this is what I did with it.

arrived looking great.

So I decided to rust it a bit over night in the airing cupboard wrapped in a dog poo bag(unused) that i had sliced and wetted.

It is a great little knife, takes and keeps a razor edge, it's now the knife we fight over most when were making tea, as Wifey and I both want to use it! Cheers Stu your knives are brilliant.
