Howdy,
I been reading posts and doing research and I see it's been alittle mellow, so I figured I join up and ask a few questions I had on my mind. Well a bit of an intro I reckon. I'm just a guy who likes to have somekind of hobby to do. A few years back I got into electronics and started building my own guitar effects. Which led to building my own analog synthesizers, like old Moog synthesizers (maybe some of the old timers and music buffs will know what I'm talking about), I also get into rebuilding old 70's and 80's BMX bikes. It's alot of fun but I kinda slowed down after I stumbled across the mikov site and other switchblade kits, oh man it was on then. Started tearing apart some knives and doing lots of reading, and found this place. Which leads into the next direction I would like to take. Making my own kick springs and backsprings to repair a few broken knives I have. So I hope you all can help and encourage me. Posts to follow...

Hey Gus, welcome!
I'm sure a couple of the folder guys will pitch in on the backspring question.
