October has been a good month for badgers. Got a BAe and a DABA! I like the older style blades alot but then again who doesnt....the only sad part about the whole deal was the customs but>>>> no regrets<<<< :D

I got a pm today from ken44 to show some pics of the stripped DABA so i quickly made some pics (not to good not to bad :) but overall good enough for a sneak peak) so here goes.

The DABA was stripped with some random brand x paint stripper, watch out if it gets on your hands, quickly wash them with water cos it feels like your are on fire...
After this it looked rough so i got some water, some 800 grit sandpaper and started the somewhat labor intensive sandingprocess.
After the sanding i got a tube of flitz and some old t-shirt and polished until i was ok with the resulting shiny surface. I didnt make it absolutly perfect because it will be my edc next to a GW.

Some parts of the surface may look a little dull thats because there is still some flitz polish on the steel...:o

Oh and i already used it so there are some scratches...

Here are the pics::

Could you PM me for about what the price of a DABA is. I have been looking for one and just dont know what the market price is.

I traded a snakeskin meaner street with sheath for it, so im afraid i cant help you with the market price. Maybe someone else will jump in and help you with estimated price. :thumbup:

Oh and thx guys they indeed are sweet blades :D
 
Congrats on these two marvellous knives
