Stripped clip goodness

They look fantastic. Two thumbs up. :thumbup::thumbup: :cool: That Jasco is nasty stuff to work with, but it does a great job. :eek::D
 
A member here on BF posted a thread a while back on stripping the Spyderco clips. He used a Dremel with a felt wheel & green compound. I think he even posted videos on YouTube about it. Based on what I saw there, looks like it was very fast & easy.

Thanks! Yeah, the Jasco is pretty rough stuff, but it sure does work!

I saw that post and video, but I didn't want a polished clip. I'm glad I did it the way I did because I really like the look of the bare metal from just removing the coating.

Your clip does look very good. It's another attractive option for those of us still working up the nerve to do something different with it.

Nicely done! :thumbup:
 
You can also do it with acetone, I stripped mine with acetone only thing is the black inside the spider is still there I couldn't reach inside with the paper towel
 
I thought about that, but I plan on stripping and forcing a patina on my Izula and this stuff is what was suggested. Acetone surely would've been more "friendly" to work with, though.
