Not unless you copper plate it first.

to "match" that would be hard to say, but I know that 'Dulite makes the formula ( solution) to "darken" stainless steel.....possibly some shops that do a LOT of this type , may have developed ways to get it really 'dark', when we did it years ago, it was 'dark' but more subdued, so thats why I say as to "match" the very dark ,almost '
black' of todays finish on the Blackhawks would be tough..........
