I was inspired by all the home grown satin jobs and polls about stripping and felt the itch to strip one myself.
I don't have a lot of coated blades and I definitely will not strip an old straight handle Busse.
So, that left my favorite user, the Basic 11. I carefully stripped the coating and threw it on a scotch brite wheel and voila, it is clean.

The INFI dimples weren't too bad at the ricaso so it took a decent satin as well. I left the edge as it came from the factory.
I'm very pleased with how this one turned out. Thanks for looking everyone!
