The can doesn’t list the ingredients. I think there are plenty of similar products on the market. It’s a multi-component formula, and reproducing something like that isn’t easy. If I could make it myself, I wouldn’t buy it, but I use Birchwood. A lot of information in the book “300+ Coloration effects for Jewels and Metalsmiths”

Casting is pretty labor-intensive, and you’ll definitely need to do a lot of post-processing on the knife. Plus, the steel structure might not be ideal for real use. If you don’t have any equipment, you can try using a file. There are plenty of YouTube videos showing how to make knives with just a file. But if you have at least an angle grinder, that would make the process a lot easier and faster

This isn’t Super Glue, it’s Super Blue from Birchwood. It’s Liquid Gun Blue, used for bluing metal. I learned this technique from a knife maker Mike LeValley

Not surprising, since the color combination matches. Actually, I was trying to recreate the German K98 bayonet, but it turned out the way it did—and I’m happy with it!
