Re: Re-Rigged
Looking good! I've done a few of those. The ones I did had nail breaking springs, so I never used anything neat like bone, I was too afraid it would crack under the strain. I used micarta on those ones. I suppose stag would be strong enough. Hmmm

Thanks fella's . Going to Make a Flat long loop bail .. I think there flashy
Back spring on theses Type Knives are very strong . Nothing I would be comfortable using . So The project Begins ( Lol) Its quite possible to tweak the snap by varying Pin Hole Size and placement or so I found out . But the Liners must be Original before the modification with the pin size .. Thanks for youR Comments Will Have it completed Soon , I will take some 360 Views Should You like some ideas .. Ty K.C
