I know.
I do collect knives as well, and wanted to patinate some of my damascus knives which had faded. I used to have access to gun blue during my army days. Had access to SAF armouries and had worked with gun blue on rifles before.
Unfortunately, it's difficult to bring in the item from Europe due to Euro air restriction on liquid items. Cannot get it from USA either, due to US restrictions on chemicals.
