Etch came out CLEAN. It's a labor of love.Etched and stripped my AMS. I’ve had this one a good while and the coating was to the point where I’d have to etch or lose the logo. I’m damn happy with how it turned out.
Here she is after scotchbrite, steel wool, and an abundance of grease of the elbow.

It's great so far - the knife easily fits in my right front pocket next to my S&W J-frame 360PD, with the firearm in a sticky holster or DeSantis nemesis pocket holster. I'm planning to see if I can wrap a lanyard around the belt loop, so that the sheath can be retained in the pocket when I draw the knife out by the lanyard...Thank you. Yes sir ya can. Hows that Slotted sheath working for pocket carry?

Think 365+ times, etch once.Wow !!!!! That came out GREAT !!!!! Looks awesome !!
I have a Hog Badger I’m thinking about etching and stripping. Been thinking about it over a year now lol.
I’ve even thought about selling it. That way I’ll go buy an uncoated version lol. But there’s something about ,,, what if it turns out almost like a comp finishThink 365+ times, etch once.I'm in the same boat
That's why i love strippers, the coating under the handle solves the rust issue, also, ive had them turn out damn good like comp finish. The regular non cerakote coating falls off with citristrip and then its just a little elbow grease cleaning everything up.I’ve even thought about selling it. That way I’ll go buy an uncoated version lol. But there’s something about ,,, what if it turns out almost like a comp finishPlus l would like having the coating under the handles.
I have a few thatAZTimT did his handy work on, I love those knives !!! really miss his work.
That's why i love strippers

I apologize for being a 35 year old juvenile...
Who makes the third knife down? And what is it called by the way? I recognize the others. Chris Reeves, Carothers, & Toor Knives.
