@@STUFFWEDO so I did this today except I dismantled to checkout the construction. R10.00 for a Dylon powder on special at Clicks. 3minutes, came out burgundy. Not too bad. Decided to take a black Sharpie to the spacer. Seems these FRN scales absorb Ink and dye well. Worked a treat.

[@STUFFWEDO]

That is a super idea with the Sharpie. Will check out the Clicks stuff as I normally use the stuff from Metro.

[@johnroe9298]

Awesome, did you do a second dunk, or was +-3mins all it took?

[@STUFFWEDO]

It was done in real time so 3min I guess. I am dying the tong tomorrow so keep an eye out for that video.

[@johnroe9298]

@@STUFFWEDO Thanks, looking forward to it.

[@willbollman6246]

One more question...sorry...did you have any negative side effects from not disassembling the knife...any internal rust or anything like that...did it mess with the action?

[@STUFFWEDO]

Nothing at all but I would not do it with a high carbon steel blade like any 10 series or even d2. 8cr or any stainless works a treat.

[@willbollman6246]

What's the powder dye you used?

[@STUFFWEDO]

It is a cheap bangladesh powder nylon/synthetic dye. But I am sure any synthetic or nylon fabric dye will work. Thanks for watching.

[@willbollman6246]

Cool thanks. Rit is easy to find here so I'll go with that

[@STUFFWEDO]

Rit is the easiest but I was going for the cheapest I could find and It still worked. Just make sure you use the synthetic dye.

@@STUFFWEDO *update* dyed my d2 honey badger racing red...got lazy and dipped the knife in the brew without taking it apart. Scales look beautiful but there's a visible line on the blade where I stopped the dip. Tried everything, but just have to live with a stained blade now

[@STUFFWEDO]

I dyed a d2 rat yesterday and it did noting to the blade. Sorry about your knife. What dye did you use? And how long was it in there?
