De-Humping My Case Humpback Stockman

Rick, it's hard to see in that little crack! But with the help of my trusty lighted loupe, I can make out a bronze colored streak, sort of mottled, in the otherwise gray metal. Is that it?

Yep, that's probably it. I didn't know you would have to get your loupe out to see it. Didn't mean to put you through all that.:o Mine is very visible with the naked eye. Stands out like a sore thumb, in fact. Not in a bad way but it's very easy to see. I was curious if you could see yours as easily.

Thanks for taking a look, Andrew. I appreciate it.:thumbup:
 
Rick, it was no problem at all---I'm always pulling the loupe out for something knife-related. I can't see the bronze color with the naked eye, though---but my naked eyes may be weaker than yours!

In any event, the great walk and talk on the Humpback is another of its enjoyable features. I guess the phosphor bronze bushing gets some of the credit.
