I would definitely not etch the blade as

But it is your blade, your call.

Wow... quite a big family you have!
Thanks Marius!

The lack of etching, do you think that's true of older ones also? I thought there was some evidence of Moros etching their blades with limes after leaving them in the hot sun.

Thanks,
Leif
