Im thinking of stripping my 411. Has anyone done this? If so could you post a picture of it?
Thanks

Lead the pack. Take pics when done.
It's really easy...don't worry about anything. Coating will come right off, might require just a tad bit of elbow grease...but likely not.

Strippers are the best! They dirty up real well too...

I think there's a tutorial somewhere...forget exactly the location, sorry. It's pretty easy though. You need to upoload them into a web-based location like Photobucket, etc....then copy the html [img] links and paste them here.

Been thinking about stripping my 411 for over a couple weeks--just haven't done it. I think the performance would be enhanced since it would be less drag. If I do I will force a patina on it or possibly brown the blade. may even switch the black handle for the sage one off the MM, and vice-versa. Just can't push myself into doing it yet.

I just applied paint stripper to mine a couple hours ago. I will clean it up tomorrow and start forcing a patina on it. I will have pictures up in this thread tomorrow night or Monday night.
