Buck vantage force pro washers

[thinbluelinetx]

I saw a youtube review of the Vantage Force Pro and the reviewer said that the washers were made of nylon. Can anybody verify this? I was wanting to get one of these knives, but the nylon washers might be a deal killer. I have a Vantage Avid (dymondwood) and the washers are phosporous bronze, thus creating a super smooth and fast deployment. It would be a bummer if such a cool knife like the Force Pro had nylon washers.

Don't quote me, but I think once upon a time they were nylon but now they are brass or bronze. Everyone I have taken apart have had the metal washers...

The two force selects that I have come with two washers per side. One thick grey nylon matched with a thin white nylon. Once broken in thay are as fast as any of my brass versions. Hope this helps.
