A nice and easy tutorial to follow.

Barethrills got it spot on. All i did with the little knife was to use letter's from hobbycraft. The bowie was a stencil i had made now to make more knives.

I read about salt water etching a few years ago. I didn't realise it got such clear results. Excelent job there
