Thank you!!!Looks good!![]()
Very nice - howd you do it ? looks great.
Coated blade, I stripped the coating
All I did was strip the coating....Looks great! Did you do any smoothing around the CBT area? It looks smoother than mine. Maybe it just looks that way because it is darker.
... It darkens evenly and does not rub of easily.
No it doesn't.looks great, but, are you implying that it does rub off?
Yes I didDid you polish off the de-carb layer under the coating ?
Proper testing takes a enormous amount of time. I will see the first week of April if I can get to it. I honestly think enough testing has been done on Busse from very reputable testers(cliff stamp and following) and Knife makers(Nathan).Now go beat it through some wood and see how it holds up. I'm interested in the durability. It looks super cool.
