    Another A.G. Russell titanium Funny Folder...this time the titanium was blackened before stripping the high points and selectively anodizing. No lacquer was used to black out the background:cool: ~Chip

    Did some anodizing today on the Stryduhr, the textured background is a dark blue to simulate the "blacking out" that engraving traditionally gets, with bronze on bare titanium for the rest.

    I was given this Strider SMF clone, and while I don't condone clones it's certainly a lot of practice real estate in titanium ;)

    Good, inexpensive, engraveable knife?

    The A.G. Russell Titanium Funny Folders cut really well, and it's a small unique knife that can go almost anywhere without drawing attention.

    How to get thermolock off a part?

    I haven't used Thermolock, but I use hot glue to hold small parts all the time. As I found suggested here, a few drops of acetone applied at the joint and it peels right off:thumbsup:

    Yup, everything in the linked thread is anodized titanium. You can't anodize stainless steel, only reactive metals like titanium, niobium, etc.
