Those colors, they don't give you any tactical advantage unless you plan to auction it off as a collectors piece

>>29206290
Actually curious about this too, is it a type of paint or finish

anodization. basically they electrify the metal with different wattage and it comes out different colors. this is something you can actually do at home if you're safe about it.

These knives are worth more or CS:GO than in real life.

titanium rainbow

>>29206313

Rainbow

Anodization, though.

I like acid wash blades, but I guess that's still kinda gay. Damascus is too odd looking for me.

I think the green zombie ones are even gayer.

They're all gay, though.

Just plain fucking steel.

Only aluminum can be anodized.
>>29206290
Steel treated with a chemical to make it like that. Its gay.

>this is something you can actually do at home if you're safe about it.
Suggesting a /k/ommando wouldn't just stick the blade in an electrical socket.

>>29206310
>tactical advantage

What are you planning on doing Rambo, assaulting the neighbors cat?

>>29206331
This or "oil slick"

You can get blued case hardening by using bone though if you want something that isn't gay.

Here's a more tasteful example of case color hardening.

If the fags in this thread can't comprehend why this is better than the oil slick rainbow finishes, which have their place i guess, then I'm not going to try convincing them.

The problem is the oxidation rubs off really easily. It's not going to last on anything you actually want to use.

>>29206413
>only aluminum
yeah, no.
you can anodize a lot of different metals with a car battery, a stencil, and paper towel soaked in diet coke

>>29208818
They make clear cerakote.

Damascus is beautiful. Pattern folded steel is just lazy and tacky
