posting first photo?
I think I finally may have figured this out. What with a new camera (first digital) and my total ignorance of all things computer, this has been a somewhat exasperating learning experience. Thanks to Jamey Saunders for the use of his web page. Without that Inever would have got here. well here goes! __________________ BAT |

Justin-- Yes, I was trying to match the finish on the blade. However when I went to the buffer to polish I was to aggressive and buffed out some of the finish. As this is my edc I have been slow to refinish.
Thanks everyone for the kind comments. Coop-- Maybe you could tell me how to avoid the jagged looking edges (where the bolster and scale join). I've tried to find the answer in manuals and such but although they explain what it is and to some degree what causes it I fail to understand how to correct it. Thanx. __________________ BAT |

Higher resolution or a lower jpeg compression will reduce the jaggy lines problem.
That is shoot the picture at a higher picture quality setting on the camera. (if you can) If you can't, or don't have the option then you can rotate the knife so most of the straight lines are either vertical or horizontal in the view finder. That will at least reduce the number of places it happens. |
