"Gilding the Stanley" - My Customization of the Stanley 199 Knife
This is my try at customizing a Stanley 199 utility knife per the "Stanley 199 Challenge" proposed by @357magdad over on @ScoutCrafter 's channel. I was running late and didn't have any paint stripper so I went full industrial black enamel over the standard paint coating. After several light coats of black enamel I used gold leaf to gild the checkering in the handle. Sealed the gold then for good measure gave the entire thing a few coats of gloss clear enamel. Finally I got rid of the terrible looking screw the knife came with and replaced it with a steel slotted flat-head screw from my collection of old screws. I heat-blued the screw to a nice dark color which I think looks a lot nicer in the knife.
Thanks for watching!
