Stripped BK2 and BK16...easy to do.

After tons of use, I decided to finish stripping off what field use had not. I think they look great! Kleen aerosol stripper and steel wool works wonders.

It was very simple. http://www.youtube.com/user/gavkoo has some excellent vids and I put a wicked edge on each since using the chosera and shapton stones I purchased. Stones were easy to learn thanks to this man http://www.youtube.com/user/virtuovice

Stones are the way to go, so old school and traditional. They provide an excellent feeling of accomplishment. I then strop using green rouge.
