Knife number six slip joint folder with AEB-L steel (Photo Over Load)

Wow, congratulations!! I have also just stepped in the slipjoint making and it is fantastic!!
I really like your knife, and have some questions, to get help for my next trial.
I noticed you did a perfect job on peening the pivot, but it is showing in colour, what steel did you use for bolster/pivot?
The nail nick: did you test to cut it very slowly with a dovetail cutter on the drill press? or with a rotary dressed stone on the dremel? or did you went straight with the cutoff disc?
You did a great job on the soldering!!! i also used Bose method and is amazing, are you sure you need the spot welder? If yes are you soldering after spotting to ensure no moisture wicks inside and/or the seam will show between liner/bolster?
I wish we live in the same town to have a chat and build something together :)

Very well done, I hope my second one that I am doing now, turns out half as good. Love the sound of that walk and talk.
