Thanks! Now I feel lazy for not searching myself ;) Mine is the third from the right. I really wanted the one on the right end..

The far right was the one I originally bought. I ended up not liking the feel and sold it to someone in Canada...

Copper X5 (14500)
S.S. X6 (18650)

$85 for the set; custom programmable driver; XP-L H, lighted tailcaps

edit: didn't mean to sound like they were for sale, that is what I paid for them in a group buy.

Sorry guys just now seeing your response.
The main thing is get it clean and oil free. Wash with dish soap, sand with 800 grit sandpaper, go over with a green Scotch pad, clean with acetone or denatured alcohol, rinse with cold water, dry, then start applying Birchwood Casey Perma blue with a cotton ball or Q tip. You can do multiple coats to make it darker. Make sure not to touch it with your bare hands, use some type of rubber gloves that's safe with these chemicals. After its had time to dry lightly buff with the Scotch pad or 0000 steel wool.
