This knife is mean.

I know I’m preaching to the choir right now..

Man that thing would look great logo etched deep and then stripped... I bet it is smoooth under the paint.

That would be a good bet since the model is FFG

I was really surprised how polished the Mil Regulator was that I stripped. It was the only Busse I recall where the coating just peeled away cleanly because the steel was so smooth (not just ground but looked polished - the flats were rougher). I really want to see that American Regulator font/logo etched, hahah.

A heavily patina’d stripper would be pretty nice..

If this one doesn’t find a new home this weekend I’ll be pulling it to put something else on the exchange...
