MM,
Great looking knife as usual. Didn't the 194OT usually have a liner lock or am I thinking of another knife? If it did, I didn't notice that your rebuilt one had one. If it did have one prior to the beautiful new life you put into it, did you have to make any adjustments without having the liner lock? Just wondering........

thanks guys, I appriciate the kinmd words.

D&B, yes it had a liner lock to start with, he doesn't like them so I took it out. I had to cut the swinden rivits to get the lock out, drill out the bolsters and pin together in the conventional way. No real big operation, really.

BTW, did you go to the NKCA show? wasn't much there.

Hey MM, thanks for the info. Nope, didn't go to the show. Work got in the way......as usual.:thumbdn:

No problem. You didn't miss nothing by far. one case with some old mint waldens and cut cos that were said to be from the factory collection, cheapest knife in that case was $650. A few OT here and there. Nothing spectacular
