Relevant to my interests. I love the knife. Not crazy about the coating. If it were smooth it wouldn’t bother me.

I have a Recon Tanto factory 2nd that I got in the mid '90s due to a small bubble in the coating. I like mine the way it is but you could try taping off the handle with aluminum foil at the hilt and use the solvents that others have stated.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Any ideas on something that wouldn't? Thanks I applied it to a buskin, waited 10mins, wiped off the coating like it was nothing. You won't get easier with a more toxic product, you will just get a more toxic product. Seriously.....just try it at least. |

Back in the 1990s I got a Recon Scout with the craptastic epoxy coating. I wrapped the blade in paper towels & poured methylene chloride on it & soaked it, keeping the solvent off the rubber handle. The solvent caused enough separation I used a single edge razor blade & the epoxy came off in huge chunks.
YMMV, but it worked. Acetone may work & is easier to buy these days. The Carbon V does stain if you don’t stay on top of things, or leave the knife in a sheath—but my knife, including Randall’s & Fallkniven are tools, so I don’t care. The exception is the Chris Reeve stuff not made anymore. |

I’ve stripped some coatings off of knives before. The coatings sometimes obscure blemishes in the steel from the grind.
