Arthas...the site says the bolsters are stainless. Is that true or are they nickel silver? Did you thicken up the backsprings and blades?

More info needed as to blade & backspring thickness. Or is it just a picklock version of the standard swivels?

The mechanism is the old-style picklock one, however the blades are the usual "newer" ones. I'll get the information on the bolsters as soon as possible.
Talk to you soon, M.

Mr. Butch,
I have a sneaking suspicion he is a
"chain yanker," but since my recent
faux pas suggesting "Psycho Boy" might be a shill for Mr. Chuck (or even Mr. Chuck his ownself
), I am tending to be more cautious in my assessments...
