Hi,
I have a related problem. the engraving on my Dh is sharp but bright down to the bottom of the cuts and doesn't stand out very well. Can anyone recommend a treatment to darken the bottom of the grooves? I tried ortho blue on the trigger guard and then rubber with 1600 grit paper on a block to clean the top and this worked pretty well. An engraver suggested spraying with rustoleum flat black and then polishing off the top surface. Has anyone tried this? Are there any well accepted ways to acheive this result?

Regards
Preston Chaney
