When I had these slips I used a krylon color called " anodized bronze" , cool color imo and gave it that ashy look.

Why do you guys even care if he plays them off as spoons? I'm willing to guess that anyone who actually bought real spoons couldn't careless about people running around with fakes because they likely didn't buy them for looks only purely performance.
