Just got done my BK7......
Stripped it with spray-on stripper and plastic scraper.
Lightly hand sanded whole deal with 1000 grit paper.
Painted the whole knife with Frenches yellow mustard.....stripes.
Set for an hour. ... pretty cool but wanted more defined stripes.
Restriped with Sriracha hot sauce.... worked great..... Very thick good stripes..... let it sit for 45 minutes.
Gave it 30 minutes in vinagar and water 50/50.
30 minutes in baking soda and water to stop acidic reaction.
Lightly sanded again.
Replaced hardware with stainless steel and installed my micarta.
Liking the way it looks.... pretty cool
Ordered an Azwelke sheath .... can't wait to put it all together...
