first knives etched

Well my first 2 knives ever made have been etched now I used a mix of 2 parts hydrogen peroxide to 1 part muriatic acid. Soaked for 5 minutes, neutralized in watery baking soda and cleaned with acetone. I think for a first attempt they are coming out nice. Both are 1080.

First blade I etched. Only did 2 5 minute soaks and once I hit it with 1000grit I don't think it was deep enough. My second blade is on its 4th soak.

On a side note, here is the logo I've chosen to go with. What do you guys think?
