It's a work in progress right now, I'm at 220 grit hand sanding, when I find time, gonna slowly work it until I get to 2000 grit.
I've never tried a mirror finish on a knife, figured the bk5 would be a good to try it on.

Waiting patiently for the bk21......but my patience is being tested, if I see a good deal on a bk4, I may have to get one.

Just got mine for $62 - best deal I've seen yet (4,5, and 15 are dirt cheap right now with free 2 day shipping-I assume you know where that is haha)

Ok, broke down and ordered a parkerized bk4 from Coyle Outdoors, that should hold me over until the bk21 comes out.

Doesn't take much encouragement, for the cost of going out to eat I can have some 1095crovan.
Plus it holds it value pretty good, can't put all my precious metals money in gold and silver, got to diversify with copper, lead and 1095crovan.:thumbup:

My freshly stripped bk2, for those of you who have polished this knife how long did it take you to get all the pitting, scratches, and tooling marks off? I started sanding and haven't made a dent in the marks, just polished around em lol

Just for $#!+$ and giggles, and bc I can. That's why. I'd never polished a knife b4 so having a freshly stripped bk2 in front of me I figured why not. It gotten plenty of use and will continue getting plenty of use. It's one of the most used and abused knives I own.

Good job, more so because you did it the hard way, the path of elbow grease,
(btw, if you sand free hand, use a block (flat piece of wood etc) if you just use folded sandpaper it will ride over the bumps instead of ironing them out, it will take you longer)

That's what I did for removing the pits and grind marks. Took a 2x4 and wrapped sand paper around it, it grips the work bench and allowed me to grip the knife with both hands and go to town.
