Need some advice from you smart folks ..Ok here is my problem; I have a Strider SNG folder. I purchased this knife used at a good price because it had a large scrape on the left side of the blade finish, I did not care because it was going to be a “user”. The blade finish is “digi-camo” (might be spelling it wrong). Anyway After a while the scrape started bugging me so a “friend” told me to “rub it out” with scotch bright..Well now the blade finish is totally ruined. I asked strider if the blade could be refinished or stonewashed, There answer was no. Does anyone know a place I can send the blade to have it stonewashed? Is it even possible? :confused:
 
Anything is possible. First thing, stop listening to your "friends", free advice turns out to be expensive at times as you can see. Send Richardj a message, he is a knifemaker on these forums. He can probably give that blade a sweet satin finish, he would also know who would stonewash it for you, if he doesn't do it himself. Richardj is a really good guy, very helpful, patient, and has great pricing. Give it a shot.
 
I'll put a blasted finish on it for free if
You pay postage both ways !! Here is what the results will look like!

wow, they must be real busy, i doubt you put too deep scratches on s30v with a scotch brite pad, sand blasting this will take a couple minutes max ...
 
If you end up getting your blade refinished can you post some pics. Intereseted in seeing the results.
