Couldn’t agree more as you can tell I’m sureThanks man! You gotta give the lock side some love now and then.
My lengthy post a page back was just playing catch up after missing several days and posting stuff from late last week and the weekend--the knife porn equivalent of make-up sex.
Today I worked here at the house on drawings and had my razor sharp, Keyman-enhanced 710-1401 with me. I ducked outside for pics just before supper and caught a bit of a chill as our Cape Cod Spring has been wildly mercurial this year with yesterday in the mid-60's and tonight headed for the mid-20's.

There was a bit of Barrage de-assisting chatter here the other day and I was reminded of it this morning looking through my knife drawers for today's carry so I grabbed my 581. I've got a 585 too, but have left that one alone as it was a gift from my wife. It didn't take me long to get the spring out the 581 after picking it up on the Exchange. Never did care much for AO knives.
Along the way I removed the lock and backspacer, trading the latter for simple standoffs, changed the bolster screws to black, and did the same with the thumb studs which I received comped from BMK after asking if they were available for sale. The M390 blade has taken a wicked keen edge and I'd carry this baby more if I didn't have so many damn knives.
