Check out my post on BladeForums for the process and some story.

Here are a couple pics - Members here have helped inspired me to do this and also my wife thinking it would be cool. She started eyeing my CE SARsquatch and she likes the SAR5. Put the combination together = Competition SAR5. I may convex the edge sometime - not just yet though.

Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

That looks good! Might have to try that with mine. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Now all it needs is a Horn Dog certified air bleeding edge!

Great post! I'm surprised that the micarta isn't damaged from the paint stripper.

Yeah, I was also wondering why you put the stripper on the handle.

micarta is impervious to stripper. Putting is on the handle is the result from trying to get the coating off all exposed surfaces including the spine. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
