    Pequenos

    The lock bar ends up with a spring temper and of course the lock face on the blade is hard. I can't imagine any issue of wear on such a small knife. I thought about carbidizing the titanium locks but haven't seen the point.

    Powerhammer or press

    Not really. A lot of really great grinders do have 1.5" tool arms. My two Bader III"s have the much maligned 1.25" arms. I've never seen a problem with them, and half of mine are aluminum.

    What's going on in your shop?

    They might make it a pain to clean. I'd probably think about filling them with brass or something. Other than that it's something I've been thinking about making.

    Pointing out flaws in your work

    Another part of this is many makers keep the not "perfect" knives for self use. I don't carry anything that isn't my best work. I use what I carry as a sales aid. I show it to everyone and have sold many knives this way. Why carry second best? And like many others nothing but my best makes...
