    Well I just ordered those micarta scales. I won't strip my BK-9, but those black scales are indeed too slippery. As an aside, there are plenty of YT videos where the poly paint stripper is used. It is usually painted on, not poored onto the object, because it's very potent and quite pricey. But maybe it was justified here. :)

    I did this to mine a few years ago! I kinda wished I'd left the coating on because after getting it filthy a few times the muddy water really left it's mark on the metal and it kinda looks nasty. Don't even bother trying to sand that metal to a mirror finish because it's an almost impossible task. I spent hours on it with little progress.

  • @shinedown394

    After I saw how quickly the BK9 failed Joe X’s Destruction test. I chose not to make it my survival knife. I picked the Ontario SP5 because it made it past the concrete block beating test. And finally broke after an extreme tip test I would never push a blade to do.And is still very affordable at around $60 USD. The BK9 broke on the 3rd strike. It’s a good knife. But I wouldn’t bet my life on it. The buck 119 even made it to the end of the testing before its tip broke off. BK needs to work on annealing I think. Maybe they’re not facing the tips to magnetic north during the annealing process.
    And they need to stop skeletonizing their tangs. Pisses me off.

      Yes I learned this the hard way. It rusts easily underneath the scales so when I strip a carbon blade, I leave the coating on underneath the scales. I do cover the edges to achieve the bare steel look when the scales are attached.

    I tried doing this with a BK11 back in 2008 and fucked it up. Apparently the paint stripper I used wasn't gnarly enough, so I resorted to sanding it. Not a great idea, as there were areas near the ricasso I couldn't get to with sand paper. I was really glad I didn't try it with my BK7 first....
