I thought I would try acid etching my initials into a knife blade with muriatic acid. If the acid gets masked with masking tape, then cut out my design, then add drops of acid for 4 hours, I think that should do something.
Anyone ever tried acid etching a design into metal?
UPDATE: The acid etching worked though I had to use clear nail polish for a mask. Masking tape didn't work. The picture is here:
