Just wondering if I was to strip my DMDC in the future after it has been well worn would the spray on stripper damage the Res C handles?

It depends what she does with it ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

haha!!
Seriously though, it won't

Pit, that is so funny~

There have been tons of threads on the Busse area of BF about stripping and as Jrod says, stripper has no effect on Res C.

Here ya go buddy:

the store site says:

Resiprene C Handle

(Think of it as an all-terrain truck tire with better chemical resistance)

Resiprene C was made famous as a handle material when it was used on the Busse Combat Basics. Respirene C, these handles have all the advantages of rubber handles without any of the disadvantages. They are comfortable, shock absorbing, slip resistant when wet, and provide insulation from the cold. Unlike Kraton, Resiprene C is a Non-hygroscopic material which means that it will neither "take on" or "emit" fluids. This quality not only gives them unparalleled durability but makes them extremely easy to keep clean as dirt will simply not stick to them. It is impervious to salt water, petroleum based chemicals and is much more resistant to higher and colder temps than is Kraton. Resiprene C is likewise impervious to the powerful insect repellant, DEET. It is so amazingly tough and durable that Busse stands as the only company to have ever put a Lifetime Guarantee on a rubber handle. All Scrap Yard handles are fully textured to supply a slip-resistant purchase in any grip configuration. So, whether you hold the blade in a saber grip, reverse grip, upside down grip, side grip, or whatever which way you are required to hold it for your particular application, you will be assured of having a secure hold.

so I would "guess" no problems, test an area first and make sure but HornDog has stripped several blades here and had no problems that I know of. PM him and I'm sure he will tell you himself! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Good Luck!

uhhh if you have a DMDC... whats to strip? double cut is not a coating

Wasn't sure whether stripper was the thing to use or not. The DC is starting to wear from Kydex sheath removal and cutting.

but Stihlblade is right, "Double-Cut" is not a coating but a process, like "bead-blasting" that you can't repair unless you have the equipment and know-how.

If it is double cut it needs to be re-done with a bead (sand) blaster if you want it to look new again.

I hadn't noticed the Double cut part of the original post, to refinish that it's a two step process first they blast it with a fine grit aluminum oxide, then with a super fine glass bead. You can probally find a place around you that do it for a small fee search for sand blasting places
