Just thought i'd throw in a few pics of this bad boy. LOVE this knife! Feels great in hand! If anyone needs any more pics, let me know. As you can see the signature is on there pretty well.

Very nice! That's a good shot of the etching. Hey by the way, you look familiar. :)
 
still waiting for the inevitable: strippers, mods, ePreyFlippers, custom scales, ...
 
So if you wanted the sig to be etched a little more so when you stripped it stood out could u acid etch it then strip the coating? Or if not acid something to that effect.
 
It is. Very much so actually. I am modding mine as we speak. Ya know the usual
 
I wonder if it'd be worth doing to gun blue bleach on the etching before stripping, then do paint stripper? Hmmmm....the possibilities.
 
When I get around to stripping and modding mine, I wanna make the signature deeper, make it a FFG and then either blue everything but the signature, or only blue the signature, whichever causes it to stand out more.

Probably but make sure to protect the edge with vaseline or wax. The reaction is gonna look for somewhere to go and with an exposed edge I can forsee some major damage
 
I am waiting on clich to get done. You know its going to be awesome, I figured the laser would be into the metal so I am curious how it will look bleachy blued.
