Wnc goater...I know your looking for a simple finish...yeh I have been playing with cera coat (it is not simple blades needs to be soaked in acetone, oven to "gas out" then sprayed then back in oven) but in my searching for an acceptable paint finish dura cote makes a paint that does not need to be baked and is sprayed right from a spray paint can so it is the simplest I could find as far as a paint anyway. the only down side is price if I remember right I think it is 40$ a can...something you might want to look into I read ALOT of reviews from knife makers they were all positive results.
Jimmontg....reading your post I am curious do you have any pics of the stainless you etched...I was under the impression that stainless would not take a etch. if vinegar would etch it wouldn't acid (ferric, phosphoric, muriatic) just curious to see how it came out how far did you grind it before etch?
