Buck reaper

[bucklife301]

I have wanted to do this for a while finally got a chance today I took some paint stripper and removed the coating on my reaper

I like it. Is that a bead-blasted finish under the coating? Kind of looks like it in the photos......

It is a good idea to remove the coating. My Reaper got other scales too and another sheath.

Haebbie, which model sheath is that for? I remember one of the Hood/Buck collaborations looked similar to the Reaper.

That would have been the THUG

Haebbie did you etch the logos on yours?

 

[bucklife301]

It removed my logo

My all-time favorite Buck is the Thug, I stripped this and the logos stayed.

First year was hollow ground. Buck changed to flat to match the rest of the line.

Cool
