Our Story

In August 2022, Baker Forge embarked on a mission to revolutionize the world of knife making by introducing a groundbreaking etching solution specifically designed for enhancing Damascus and laminated steel finishes. Recognized globally for their exceptional Damascus and Laminated steels, Baker Forge has long been a beacon of quality and innovation in the industry.

The vision was clear: to create an etching solution that simplifies the process, ensuring both amateurs and professionals could achieve flawless results without the hassle of mixing chemicals or guessing the right formula. This vision led to the creation of Gator Piss, a breakthrough no-mix etchant that offers a perfect etch every time.

Our collaboration with Greyson from Grey Blades marked the birth of Gator Piss. Together, we not only developed this innovative product but also committed to providing a comprehensive resource library. This includes a step-by-step video series that demystifies the etching process, allowing makers to focus more on their craft rather than worrying about the finishing touch.
