I have a question for those of you who have used damascus as a pommel. I am making a stag handled bowie with damascus guard and pommel. After attaching the pommel and sculpting it to match the stag, how do you etch the damascus without subjecting the stag to the ferric chloride??
So far my best guess is to just kind of paint the FC onto the pommel with a cotton swab or brush in order to keep it off of the stag.
I figured I'd ask others before I screw something up.
Thanks,
SDS
