I found this knife at a local store here in Germany at the end of the last year and I love it. The squared of "two dot" bolsters are as pleasing as the beautiful blade.

I read a little about this knife here on the forums, but there are still some questions left. I would be happy if you guys could help me out.

First, I canˋt see any rivets in the brass bolsters. How is this knife built together?

Second, the brass looks much less "yellow" compared to other 110s I own. Since the Federal was built by hand, are there any differences in the production process of the brass? (welted, sintered, forged)

Thanks in advance and have a blessed day.
 
Thank you very much. Yes, I'm quite familiar with the reason why and when this knife was built. I'm just curious about a few details how it was made...
