I was selling a BK5 to a gentleman on the forums as I'm cleaning out my personal stash. He requested a convex'ed edge and in doing so it made the forced patina from the previous owner look not so good. So we cleaned it up for him, per his request, and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.

I've stripped a few Beckers and Busse's and Kin in the past, makes me think it may be time to make them look a little shinier after the stripper treatment.
